ATP - ROGER CRUISES INTO QUARTER FINALS

Roger did not have any difficulty defeating 14th-seeded Tommy Robredo today, booking a spot in the quarter finals with a 7-5, 6-2, 6-2 victory. He has now won his last 38 matches in New York!

It was yet again a rather typical match between the two players: Robredo showed a strong start, but Roger was too strong and constant in the long run. Roger moved on in 1 hour, 48 minutes with the help of nine aces and five breaks. He held his serve throughout the predictable bout and is now 9-0 lifetime against Robredo.

Next up is 12th-seeded Robin Söderling. Roger has played the Swede eleven times, dropping only one single set in the process.
