BASEL:Roger Federer opened his bid for a 10th title at the ATP Swiss indoors in Basel on Monday, crushing German qualifier Peter Gojowczyk in what was the Swiss legend's 1,500th career match.
This landmark 6-2, 6-1 success in his hometown set the 38-year-old up for his tilt at a 103rd title.
"I thought the match was good," Federer said.
"I felt a nice spring in my step. I was quick to the ball and it didn't take me long to get used to the conditions, that's positive.
"There is a danger in playing Peter indoors since he's already had two solid qualifying matches. He also serves great indoors.
"But I was able to control things."
