Roger started his French Open campaign convincingly today with a
6-4, 6-4, 6-3 victory over American Sam Querrey.
"It's always difficult in the first round at Grand Slams," Roger said.
"I'm relieved and I'm looking forward to the second round."
Roger will now face Albert Montanes of Spain or Belgium's Kristof Vliegen for
a place in the third round as he seeks to complete a career Grand Slam. He was rarely troubled in his opening match, facing a break in the first set
but recording two breaks of his own against the Querrey delivery to move a set up.
He then showed solid tennis with some occasional brilliant shots and was able to wrap up the victory in just over an hour and a half.

Very thankful that our cable has BALLS Channel who is responsible for having LIVE telecast of the French Open 2008. And I'm very lucky because Roger's game have no interruptions (except for the commercials, of course!) so I was able to witness the complete 3 setter game.
Well, as I can see... Roger's outfit really suits him this time..the NAVY/WHITE outfit looks really good on him.. rather than the baby blue sports gear. Anyway, his face value saves him after all!
Roger got past of Sam Querrey that easily. No stress! I can't find a nice picture of Querrey.. not that he isn't that good looking..
just settle for the one I've found out YAHOO! lol!
To sum it all up... Roger started strongly for the 1st round. Wishing all the luck for the next match! By the way, this is the poster of this year's Roland Garros tournament!
By the way.. who is History and Legacy? I think it both pertains to Roger.. how about for Rafa?! hmmmm... lol!
