Wimbledon 2011 Robin Soderling's News
Robin Soderling's ambition of breaking up the famous four who dominate the men's game is still intact after he recovered from two sets down to beat Lleyton Hewitt 6-7, 3-6, 7-5, 6-4, 6-4 on Thursday.
Yeah, it's very tough. Federer, the third man in the Big Four, coasted into the third round, beating Adrian Mannarino 6-2, 6-3, 6-2 in Centre Court's final match, every one being played under the roof.
Federer, who was playing "indoors" on Centre Court for the first time, managed only nine aces but he played far more service winners, thrashing down strokes on which his opponent managed only to place a flailing racket. I thought conditions were fantastic. [Mannarino] did well, he shows signs of good potential, unusual lefty-play, maybe it took me some time to get used to him but I thought I played some really good tennis."
Federer will next play David Nalbandian, an Argentinian who, he said, once made him panic when both men were younger. Djokovic beat Kevin Anderson of South Africa 6-3, 6-4, 6-2. Two straight-set wins.
The Swede world No.5, Robin Soderling will be clashing with former Wimbledon champion, Lleyton Hewitt in the second round of the Wimbledon 2011.
The previous encounter between both the player’s was on the hard court match in Cincinnati TMS tournament in 2010, where the top seeded player for Swede, Soderling has defeated Hewitt in a three set thriller with a score line of 4-6 6-3 and 7-5.
While, Lleyton Hewitt t has even worked hard against the Japanese player, Kei Nishikori.
