With "Luxury Strokes" Roger Federer Beats Gasquet and Advances to 3rd Round at Wimbledon.
This afternoon we experienced another good tennis performance in the center court of the All England Lawn Club and it has been a well known character in this venue, who has given a lesson as in his best moments; he brought me good memories of his magic, the one with which he has won his 20 Grand Slams in his prolific sports career. Of course I am referring to the Swiss, the master, Roger Federer; who has faced an old friend, the Frenchman Richard Gasquet No. 56 in the world ranking; and they have starred in a match full of great plays by both players. However, it has been "His Majesty" who has emerged victorious, but not before making a very good and convincing performance on the London clay.
Y fue el francés quien inició el encuentro con su servicio, donde ambos no hicieron esperar al público para mostrar un gran nivel de juego, aunque Roger amenazó con quebrar, Richard sostuvo con un impecable tiro corto y cruzado; para luego atacar el saque suizo donde incluso tuvo dos chances de quiebre, los cuales perdió con error no forzado para ambos, Roger no le dio la tercera oportunidad y cerró con un ace. Por su parte Gasquet se mantuvo alerta y colocando sus envíos por toda la cancha, estrategia que fue bien interpretada por Roger, quien parece que este tipo de juego era el que necesitaba para entrar en calor, haciendo movimientos más rápidos para poder mantenerse en competencia, defendiendo su servicio. Esta batalla se mantuvo durante todo el primer set, donde ninguno de los dos cedió espacio en los rallys, lo que conllevó a que llegaran igualados 6 - 6 y acudir al tie break; donde si observé el dominio de Roger, que se mantenía corriendo y golpeando bien la bola, tan notable fue la situación que saca Gasquet 1 - 6 abajo y comete una doble falta que da muestras de cansancio físico y mental.
Todas estas situaciones del primer set fueron claves, porque es allí donde se marca el ritmo del encuentro, por ser rivales que se conocen bien, era el primero el que señalaría el camino del partido.

For his part, Gasquet remained alert and placed his deliveries all over the court, a strategy that was well interpreted by Roger, who seems that this type of game was the one he needed to warm up, making faster movements to stay in competition, defending his serve. This battle was maintained throughout the first set, where neither of the two gave space in the rallies, which led to equalized 6 - 6 and go to the tie break, where if I observed the dominance of Roger, who kept running and hitting the ball well, so remarkable was the situation that Gasquet takes 1 - 6 down and commits a double fault that shows signs of physical and mental fatigue.
All these situations in the first set were key, because that is where the pace of the match is set, being rivals who know each other well, it was the first one that would point the way of the match.

Luego sucede la debacle, estando arriba Richard, sacando 40 - 0 y Federer pudo remontar hasta el rompimiento, no obstante llega la combinación mortal, saque y quiebre; parpadeamos y aparece el suizo dominando 5 - 0 ¡que locura!; sostiene Gasquet y Roger cierra a lo grande con un ace el 6 - 1. Entonces salieron al tercero, a ver quién tiene más ganas, Federer de ganar o Gasquet de continuar en Wimbledon; y es el suizo quien muestra mayor resistencia física, sus aciertos le dan la confianza de bajar a la red a buscar ese tercer golpe anotador y lo logra a placer, de hecho, en el séptimo game, con un par de errores del francés se genera el quiebre para el de Basilea, marcando el camino hacia la victoria, porque luego Federer asegura su servicio (con esa última pelota dejada en la red, vi a Gasquet dando muestras de agotamiento) y el francés hace lo propio aunqu4e con dificultad; escena servida para que Roger cierre con un ace para culminar la velada 6 - 4.
The second round starts, the French wanted to surprise and was about to achieve it, being one break away but could not materialize it and Roger holds that important first service. Then the debacle happened, Richard was up, serving 40 - 0 and Federer was able to go back to the break, however the deadly combination arrived, serve and break; we blinked and the Swiss dominated 5 - 0, what a madness; Gasquet held and Roger closed in style with an ace for 6 - 1. Then they went to the third, to see who has more desire, Federer to win or Gasquet to continue at Wimbledon; And it is the Swiss who shows greater physical endurance, his hits give him the confidence to go down to the net to look for that third scoring stroke and he achieves it at pleasure, in fact, in the seventh game, with a couple of errors of the French is generated the break for the Basel, marking the way to victory, because then Federer secures his service (with that last ball left in the net, I saw Gasquet showing signs of exhaustion) and the Frenchman does the same even with difficulty; scene served for Roger to close with an ace to end the evening 6 - 4.
Fuente ImagenAunque no ha sido un partido tan espectacular, la gente disfruta ver ganar al legendario maestro del tenis, en su torneo favorito. Han sido 1 hora con 52 minutos de juego, en el que Gasquet también ha hecho grandes tiros ganadores; este reto que le propuso el francés ha servido para sacar lo mejor del suizo, que mostró destellos de aquellos tiempos de dominación plena, donde no dejaba pasar una bola. Si bien es cierto que ya no es el tenis potente de sus años mozos, sigue exhibiendo una técnica exquisita que nos deleita.
Ahora su próximo reto le obliga a mantener el ritmo y su mente ganadora, porque será el británico Cameron Norrie, número 34 del ranking y al igual que él, especialista en esta superficie.
Aunque vemos a tres raquetas avanzar de manera implacable (Rublev, Zverev y Medvedev), con la mente puesta en verse las caras con Novak Djokovic, Roger y Andy hacen soñar a la fanaticada en cada presentación en la cuna del tenis mundial.
