“It is always important to win your first game on grass, because otherwise the grass season can be very short,” said Federer. “I am happy to have won because Benoit is a dangerous player. It is always difficult to dominate against him, you always feel like the game can change at any moment,” Tsonga told AFP.

“I used to live nearby. I would come here every year and lose, so it is great to have finally won,” said Struff.
