ABN AMRO, Rotterdam, Netherlands, APT 500

Fun match between Federer and Kohlschreiber. Haase is up next for Federer in the QF.

Oh ya, Kohly was even showboating!

The match was sloppy at times, but the frequent great shotmaking by both guys made for one heck of an entertaining match, in my opinion.

How could he be showboating? He was actually winless until this week.

Fed says "Ok, I am not going to pretend that I came to Rotterdam to watch Tulips".

He hit a "no look" winner. See at 6:55 in the highlights below.

LOL on he didn't got to Holland for the tulips. Good one! At least he's got his cards on the table.

Roger's serving excellently. Deserves to be no. 1. Like always, it has required a really fine performance over a year's time.

Berdych withdraws

Too bad, Berd has been looking good so far this year and that was shaping up to be an exciting bottom half of the draw.

Uh-oh, I can sense the Rafa fans salivating with hope.

Fed loses first set to Haase.

But, up a break in second set 2-0.

Federer looked terrible in the first set.

 

[El Dude]

Not watching the match, but presumably just nerves as he’s rolling now. I’m sure he has in the back of his mind that it had been five and a half years since he was #1.

Are black racquets the "in" thing now? Haase is using one, too. Great look, in my opinion.

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

I am not sure if Haase got more than 8 points in the second set. It was mighty fast. One more set to go for Roger.

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Well the old man did it ! Congrats at numero uno.

 

[Busted]

Just saw the score. Congrats to Roger on becoming #1 - AND being the oldest man ever to do it! I suspect that's a record that won't be broken for a long, long time...

 

[Federberg]

Well done Roger. Didn't think it was important but good on you my son. Now go and win the tournament so you have 97 titles. Let's get to 100+ this year and chase down Connors
