A very promising start

Roger opened the ATP season perfecty today, cruising past Christophe Rochus of Belgium 6-1, 6-2.

"I was able to create points," Roger said. "It was good to get on a roll. My movement was explosive. I am happy how I played."

Our champ had 12 aces and 47 winners in the dominating performance. He'll face Evgeny Korolev of Russia on Wednesday.
