Roger Federer reveals why Miami Open requires ‘different’ approach to Grand Slams

Roger Federer has opened up on how his approach differs from the Grand Slam tournaments to the Miami Open after defeating Filip Krajinovic in the third round. After, 7-5, 6-3 win over Krajinovic, Federer is now through to the round of 16, and will prepare to play against Daniil Medvedev on Tuesday night. Speaking after the win, he discussed how his preparations for the Miami Open change compared to the major tournaments. (via Express) “I’m not sure how much it is peaking, to be honest,” Federer said. “I think it's about maintaining maybe also a certain level, because things happen very quickly. “This is not best-of-five-set tennis. It's best-of-three. You can have a bad few minutes at the beginning of the game, like I had against [Radu] Albot, or you can have it, I don't know, maybe for Krajinovic today, bad end of the set, bad start to the next set, and that is it. “So I think it's more of a mental thing, you know, where you have maybe a point is more important than every single point at a slam.”
