Federer opens with win in Rotterdam

Flying straight from Switzerland to Rotterdam following the home loss in Davis Cup, Federer arrived on the grounds of the 39th ABN AMRO World Tennis Tournament. He first took care of media and press duties, signed plenty of autographs, and had a hit on Centre Court with Juan Martin del Potro.

Wednesday evening in Rotterdam, he took on Frenchman Nicolas Mahut. The match was played in a mellow tone as Federer cruised to a straight sets win, 6-4 6-4 in 67 minutes. The Swiss maestro served at high percentage, making 82% of his first serves.
