Stepanek is loving Sydney

Radek Stepanek (CZE) |

Radek Stepanek made light work of his opponent Florian Mayer today. The match ended 6-3, 6-2, with Stepanek taking an early lead 3-0 in the first set.

The Czech was in control of the match from the start despite facing a break point at 2-1. After the match Radek said, “Everything suits me here. Since the tournament here in 2009 I’ve felt on the court here very well and I had a win in 2009 and made the final in 2010. When you win a tournament it’s obviously a favourite place where you want to go back.”

Stepanek’s wife, former tennis professional Nicole Vaidisova was watching from the players’ box. She retired from tennis early 2010 citing “lack of interest in tennis.”
