The Spaniard, who is not especially confident at this point, dominated Marin Cilic (3-6, 6-2, 6-3) will challenge and now the Czech Tomas Berdych. The latter, seeded No. 5 will play against the big global player with the 23rd place in the Masters of London in the viewfinder.
front of a sparse support for the tournament, Verdasco regained over match a level worthy of the old Top 10 semi-finalist in a Grand Slam that he was there not long ago. Faced with the Croatian, shaped after his title in St. Petersburg but was left on the disappointment of defeat in the round in Valencia against the eventual winner Granollers, Spain came out of the box. Dominated for the first set, he suddenly began to finally let go of his shots, including this beautiful backhand cross that often broke the legs of Cilic.
“I'm here first for me to finish the season the best way possible. Then I think of the Davis Cup. “
surface visibly slowed down compared to last season – to stick to that used in London at the Masters – the game against Nando''of''ended up having to wear the opposing tendencies. So here he is in the second round for a challenge against Berdych and nothing to lose for his last ATP event of the year, he will play in early December the final of the Davis Cup against Argentina. The Czech leads 8-4 in their confrontations and easily won the last two duels. The pressure to play a ticket to London she will reverse the trend?
Fernando Verdasco: “The surface is much slower than last year but for me it's not a problem. Maybe some of last year did not appreciate that the surface is so different from the Masters. But anyone can play well on it. I also think it is very similar to playing conditions in Valencia last week. I'm here first for me to finish the season the best way possible. Then I think of the Davis Cup. This is obviously an area totally different and ultimately it will be the choice of captain. I will play either the final or I will start my vacation. “
