 | Federer passed quickly through Benneteau31-05-2013 |
Roger Federer wins the second round of the "Roland Garros" after beating the Frenchman Julien Benneteau with 6-3, 6-3, 7-5 in just over an hour and a half.
They had a total of six games between them, but the Swiss maestro already has five successes and two defeats against the representative of the hosts. Last year, Benneteau defeated Federer in straight sets in Rotterdam, but "FedEkspres" was at a fairly high level today and deservedly continues his quest for his victory No. 900 in his career, after today's success was his 899th at ATP.
He will compete in the next round with the winner of the match between Gilles Simon and Sam Querrey.
In another match of the tournament, David Ferrer defeated his compatriot Feliciano Lopez with 6-1, 7-5, 6-4. He will play for a place in the quarterfinals with Milos Raonic or Kevin Anderson.
