ATP Masters Series 1000 Miami - Third Round
31 Andy Roddick d 3 Roger Federer - 76(4) 16 64
For long-suffering Roddick fans win #3 over the GOAT must've been sweet.
It's been 4 long years since Andy beat him - and it was on the same court.
So he's narrowed the gap to 3-21. (Stop laughing.)
Given where the 2 are at the moment in their careers this was a big upset.
But he won't be allowed to celebrate for too long...
Andy has to come back tomorrow and play a Qf vs 21 Monaco - H2H: 1-0/AR.
He lost his 1st round match here last year so his ranking will get a boost.
Remember, he's fallen to American #3 behind Fish & Isner.
***
And don't feel too bad for Roger Federer - he's had a great week or so...
Winning a 4th title at Indian Wells & being named TC's Greatest of All Time.
So an early departure from Miami can't be the worst thing in the world.
Tho his biggest fan (and my friend) Diane would disagree.
