Roger Federer Goes Between the Legs Again Today in Qatar
Tuesday, January 4, 2011 at 7:36PM He's done it again, and he makes it look so easy.
Roger Federer had a sluggish first set playing today in Qatar, but the No. 2-ranked Swiss hit his stride in the second. Leading 5-2 over Dutch player Thomas Schoorel and faced with a ball that changed direction after clipping the top of the net, Federer flicked it through his legs for a clean winner into the corner.
“It’s one of the best shots again of my career, one I’m going to look back on and smile, of course,” Federer said. “It was quite fantastic.”
The 21-year-old Schoorel, playing only his second ATP-level match, managed a smile as the crowd applauded. Schoorel went on to hold his serve, but Federer sealed the win in the next game.
Federer successfully pulled off the shot—also known as a “tweener”—at the previous two U.S. Opens, at last year’s Shanghai Masters and at the 2007 Dubai Open.
