2007 ATP-WTA Tour Pacific Life Open – At The Indian Wells Tennis Garden – Day 1

Saturday – Third seed Andy Roddick is through to the third round. With only one break in the entire match, Roddick displayed serious focus and determination with a win over Spaniard Feliciano Lopez 7-6, 6-4. The stadium was filled with Roddick fans as they cheered on the #3 ranked player in the world. Roddick served up 15 aces and never faced a break point. 

In his press conference, Roddick explained that since Jimmy Connors has become his coach, “It’s a completely different game to me now”. He says he has had to make adjustments and his confidence has grown because of his legendary coach.

If the seedings hold, Roddick could face Rafael Nadal(2) in the semis next Saturday.
