Federer had another easy win at the BNP Paribas Masters over over Czech Radek Stepanek (6-4 6-3)
The Swiss Champion keeps on displaying an excellent form after the back to back win in Stockholm and Basel.
‘He was serving good, he was accurate, he was coming in a lot, which I kind of expected,’ said Federer. ‘ I just kind of felt it was gonna be a tough match to play. Thank God I already had a couple of really good return games and a good 10, 15 minutes which I was able to make a difference on, and then I could cruise home. I survived a scare early on when I was down break point and he was playing well, so it was a good match from my side’.
