Roger Federer has a very convincing performance against David Goffin to beat the Belgian 6-2 6-1 6-4 in just 1 hour and 28 minutes. Roger managed to win the first 2 sets in barely 50 minutes (and that’s great to save energy). The Swiss was perfect till he was leading 4-1 (and 2 breaks up) in the 3rd when he suddenly dropped a service game. Eventually Goffin was never a threat and Roger didn’t really struggle to win the set and the match on his serve.
Federer. I was surprised
Roger commented “It was good, surprised it went as fast as it did. win the first two sets within 50 minutes is the best thing that can happen out there, especially with a late start and against a quality player. So I was very happy. It was important to keep the momentum going, keep staying aggressive and trying to get the match done in three. I was able to do that. I was very pleased.”
Next vs. Berdych
Roger will play Tomas Berdych in the quarters. Head to head is 15-6 for Roger that has won the last 4 matches. The Maestro thinks that Berdych can be a serious threat “I have to play well. think the court suits him. I think this sort of flatter bounce and faster court is good for his serves, good for his returns. It’s a fast court, I think for his kind of game it’s good.”
