Federer Breezez Into French Open Third Round

The 17 times grand slam champion Swiss master Roger Federer recorded his 898th victory of his career in second round of French Open 2013.  He beat Indian Samdev Devarman in less than one and half hours.  He beat Devarman by 6-2 6-1 6-1.  He conceded just four games to move ahead( one less than that of the first round).  He played an aggressive tennis and gave no chance to Devarman.  Devarman put some resistance on Federer's serve and produced three break points.  All these break points were save by Federer in style.


In the whole match Federer fire 52 winners as compared to Devarman's only 12.  This shows that how attacking he is playing.  He is again looking like a man to beat.  Federer produced 14 break points out of which he converted 7.  Now he has to face home favourite French man Julien Bennetau.  Julien is familiar with Federer and he knows how to beat him.  He did so in February early this year.  He beat Federer in Rotterdam by 6-3 7-5.


He was only two points from victory at Wimbledon 2012 to pull huge upset.  He was two sets to love up but he could not close the match.  Now Federer is playing at a high level.  He has to make short work of Julien to get himself fresh to meet bigger challengers.  For this Federer has to maintain this level of play.
