Federer Halts Verdasco Comeback, Faces Murray Next
World No. 2 Roger Federer held off a late charge by Fernando Verdasco on Thursday evening in Indian Wells, defeating the Spaniard 6-3, 7-6(5) to move within two match wins of his fourth BNP Paribas Open title. Federer made a confident start to his quarterfinal match, racing through the opening set in 29 minutes with two breaks of serve. He appeared on his way to a quick victory after establishing a 4-1 lead in the following set before Verdasco launched his comeback.
The Spaniard reeled off the next three games, going on the offensive with powerful shots from the baseline, and then broke Federer at love in his next service game to assume the 6-5 lead. Verdasco held two opportunities to send the match to a third set, but failed to deliver as the Swiss forced a tie-break. Federer raced out to a 6-2 lead in the decider, and clinched the victory on his fourth match point as Verdasco returned a serve long.
I don't think I served great in those games, and I think he got some good hits in, said Federer. He started the rally off neutral and was able to neutralize me. Because he's got such big shots, especially his forehand, he can put you under pressure quickly. I think he knew that was his last chance that he had to play well and not make mistakes, and he was able to deliver...
I got lucky to get back into the match. I played a good breaker, so good luck I snuck out of it. But I hung in there and I put him under pressure early on so I did have a chance... I wasn't quite happy with the match today, but for a while there I actually was playing okay.
Federer advances to the Indian Wells semifinals for the fifth time in the past six years. He won consecutive titles at the Masters 1000 tennis tournament from 2004-06, and reached the semifinals last year before falling in straight sets to American Mardy Fish.
