The more Roger Federer ages the more he gets to the net!
The Swiss Maestro had another great performance at the 2014 US Open to concede just 9 games to a dangerous Bautista-Agut to win 6-4 6-3 6-2.
Federer: I am happy I feel good at the net
Roger went to the net 50 times against the Spaniard to comment “I used to serve/volley some myself when conditions were faster and my baseline game wasn’t as good. I’m happy I’m able to come forward now because coming to net requires a lot of agility and explosiveness and I have it back. I’m happy I’m feeling good at net because you’ve got to anticipate some, read some and it’s working really well. I hope I can keep it up.”
Next. Vs. Monfils
Roger will play Gael Monfils in the quarters. Head to head is 7-2 for the Maestro that is the hot favorite for the semis.
Talking about the upcoming quarter Roger commented I know exactly how I need to play him. It’s very clear cut in my opinion. I know I’ll be coming in; he knows he’ll be defending. He’ll be wanting to serve well and play big as well. So we both know what to expect going in.”
