Federer victory over Robredo 27th straight Slam quarterfinal

The swiss wins over Tommy Robredo was anything but easy 6-3, 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 the spanierd did`t just handed to Federer he had to earn it. That`s why I think Federer have a tougher side of the draw this year .
Federer try his new plan of being more aggressive witch mint more unforced error even on the forehand but to his credit Roger stuck to his game plan and mange to do enough damge to win. That to me is a sing of a grand slam winner . If you up against Federer or Rafa that`s what they do to you their mind set is" I will play my game and will knock you off the court " Even if they make mistake it does not seems to effect the mind set.
Next Federer will get  Andy Roddick or 19th-seeded Stanislas Wawrinka of Switzerland in the quarterfinals. Roddick and Wawrinka play their fourth-round match Sunday night.
Berdych playes Dojkovic next after beatting Verdasco in one the best matches he ever played on a hard court . I mean the guy is plying LIGHTS OUT tennis he stays in that zone and no one can stop him ! yes including Rafa & Federer . but he need to get by Djokovic first he has one win against him on grass and for losses on the hard courts.
On the women side after a marathon match full of drama Francesca Schiavone needed a women’s Grand Slam-record of four hours, 44 minutes to beat Svetlana Kuznetsova and advance to the Australian Open quarterfinals for the first time in 11 meeting.
Saving 6 match points along the way and playing 30 games in the 3rd to win
