Rotterdam 2012: The Draw

Roger will take part in 39th ABN AMRO World Tennis Tournament in Rotterdam this week. It is the first time for our champ to return to the Dutch tournament since winning the title in 2005 against Ivan Ljubicic.

Roger, the No. 1 seed, will play his first match on Wednesday (7.30 pm) against France's Nicolas Mahut (ATP 83). Roger won both previous encounters - 2008 in Indian Wells and 2006 in Wimbledon.

In the following round, a meeting with the winner of the match between Mikhail Youzhny (ATP 31) and Igor Kunitsyn (ATP 79) is possible. In the quarterfinals, Roger could meet Alexandr Dolgopolov (ATP 19), who he defeated last year in Basel. The Spaniard Feliciano Lopez (ATP 15) could then be waiting in the semifinals.

On the other half of the draw Tomas Berdych (ATP 7) and Juan Martin Del Potro (ATP 10), seeded as No. 2 and 3, are entering the tournament.
