Roger Federer had free passage towards the quarter-finals of the U.S. Open on Monday when his opponent in the fourth round, Mardy Fish, withdrew from the tournament due to undisclosed health problems. They would play in Arthur Ashe Stadium center court this afternoon, but organizers of the competition said they notified the Fish could not act. The American, 23 head-to-key tournament, missed part of the season because of a heart disease and received treatment for an unspecified problem after the victory over Gilles Simon on Saturday night. Federer, world number one, not even lost a set in his current campaign at the U.S. Open. The Swiss 31-year old will now face Czech Tomas Berdych, who thrashed Spaniard Nicolas Almagro 7-6, 6-4, 6-1.
