Rome Masters: Federer, Roddick Advance
Rafa had a valid point when he said the clay court season was jammed into a tight time frame. I feel like I’ve just wrapped up one tournament, take a breath and then turn around and realize we’re already halfway through the next tournament. And I’m just writing about it!
So Roger Federer passed another clay test - actually at this point, it doesn’t really matter what surface it is although everything seems to be that much more of an accomplishment when it’s done on clay. Federer faced Guillermo Canas, a player he has traditionally had trouble with - to the point that Roger had a losing record with Canas. Federer came up with the big W though with a 6-3, 6-3 victory to level the series 3-3 between the two.

Andy Roddick dispatched Mardy Fish, having no trouble with the 6-1, 6-4 victory. Roddick has a 8-1 series advantage against his friend. As Andy said about his game on clay, “It’s okay. I only have one match to judge it on and that’s this one, so I guess it’s good.”
Hey man, if that’s all you’ve got to base it on, go with it. Better a win than a loss, right?
