The event raised funds for the Roger Federer Foundation. In the first set, Federer jumped to a 2-0 lead but Murray quickly erased the deficit to bring the match back on serve. In the eighth game, Federer broke again and consolidated the match, wrapping up the set 6-3. Trailing 5-6 in the second set tie break, Murray swapped places with one of the ballboys, who was happy to take center stage. It was short-lived, however, as the lucky ballboy double faulted, giving Murray back the racquet. Three points later, Federer took the match 6-3, 7-6(6). This was Murray's first match in weeks after withdrawing from the Miami Open with elbow injury. "I haven't played a match for five or six weeks, so it was great to come out and play in front of the crowd against Roger," said Murray in the post-match on-court interview. The world No. 1 hopes to kick off his clay court season next week in Monte Carlo. "Monte Carlo starts one week from today so I'm hoping if I keep progressing like I have with the elbow, I'm hoping to play Monte Carlo," said Murray. "But if not then, I'd just need to stay patient. I'll try the following week but I'm getting there. I just have to go slowly." Federer, however, is looking forward to resting in the next coming weeks ahead of Roland Garros. "I'll be resting most of the time and the body needs a rest," said Federer. "I can feel it. It's not the youngest body but everything is good. I'm gonna enjoy my time with the family. "Eventually I'm gonna get back to practice, and when I do, I'm gonna go full steam, and I should be back for the French Open. That's the plan," said Federer. The fourth installment, featuring Federer and John Isner, will be held on April 29 in Seattle, WA. The Roger Federer Foundation has generated millions of dollars for children's charities in Switzerland, Zambia, Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, Malawi, and Zimbabwe. -------------------------------------------------- * 新闻来源：http://tinyurl.com/lhlsvm3 ( Tennis World USA ) MATCH FOR AFRICA 3 - Roger Federer beats Andy Murray in straight sets By Gatto Luigi / 4-10-2017 Great success for the 'Match for Africa 3' exhibition that featured Roger Federer and Andy Murray playing against each other in a packed HallenStadion in Zurich. The Swiss player won 6-3 7-6(6) hitting some funny shots like the tweener and SABR. He also shared some nice moments with the crowd during the match. Murra didn't play a brilliant tennis: the World No. 1, who withdrew from Miami and Davis Cup, didn't serve at his best due to his elbow injury that is not fully healed and at times he didn't move so great from the baseline. It's tough to say if it was because he played just an exhibition match, or if he wasn't really in his best shape. The match was played on an indoor hard-court, and Andy is practicing on outdoor clay, so he might had some issues suiting to the court condition. Before the match, players spoke to Eurosport and both were asked what the other one does better. Murray said: 'Pretty much everything'. Federer said: 'Speaking English and being a Sir.' Speaking seriously, Federer commented on his fantastic 2017 season so far: 'I really surprised myself. When I was waking up in Miami I had told my coach 'just being in the final of Miami would have been enough for me at the beginning of the season'. But I had already won at the Australian Open and Miami. So things went a little bit better than I thought they would. The important thing is to be healthy and enjoy playing, the results are like super mega bonus. I am just happy I got a second chance after a tough season last year. Next target is Wimbledon, then US Open. Roland Garros will be difficult to win, there I can play again without pressure and we will see'. He finally spoke about his girls Myla and Charlene and their "relationship" with sports: 'They are not that much into sports as I used to be. But I still hope they become ski racers.' After the match Federer met Jamie Delgado, Murray's coach, who tweeted: 'Great night in Zurich and this guy reminding me of too many sex on the beach cocktails we had many years ago!!!' http://tinyurl.com/llgwakn ------------------------------------------------- http://tinyurl.com/k6u79rc * News From : http://tinyurl.com/mgb6s6m ------------------------------------------------- * Match For Africa 2017 - Roger Federer vs. Andy Murray Pre-Match Interview https://youtu.be/BI3qSzPnvz0 * Match For Africa 2017 - Roger Federer vs. Andy Murray 2-0 Match HIGHLIGHTS https://youtu.be/QaPJN1SaOgg * Match For Africa 2017 - Roger Federer vs. Andy Murray After-Match Interview https://youtu.be/XUd5rmNBKTg * 真的表演赛就不同，看到部分比赛 Rogi 真的都蛮欢乐的 !XD https://youtu.be/Le5Y03gfAUg ( Roger Federer Funny Moment ) --
