Tennis Update: Roger Federer beats Dzumhur
Roger Federer came from a set down to beat Damir Dzumhur 3-6 6-2 6-3 6-4 under the Arthur Ashe Stadium roof to reach the US open third round. The match took place under the roof because of rain.
Roger Federer, who is ranked number three in the world, lost the first set after hitting 17 unforced errors. He dominated the rest of the sets to defeat Bosnian World number 99.
“I don’t think there is a secret to a good start other than warming up well, being well prepared mentally and not underestimating your opponent. I did all of that. But I’m not concerned because once I lose that first set I do get better, which is a good thing.’’ said Federer after the match.
In the third round, Federer is expected to face either Frenchman Lucas Pouille or Britain’s Dan Evans.
