ROGER Federer took a look around as he entered the stadium court at the Miami Open, immediately feeling the energy of the crowd.
He gave them quite a show.
Federer advanced to the fourth round at Key Biscayne on Monday, beating Juan Martin del Potro 6-3, 6-4. Federer, who was facing del Potro for the first time since 2013, never lost serve and improved to 15-1 this year.
He broke del Potro twice
Jonathan Ericsson Jersey , once in each set, and that was all he needed.
“I feel like I earned it more,” said Federer, the 2005 and 2006 champion on Key Biscayne. “I was more the aggressor. It was more my racket, and I like it that way.”
The first break put him up 5-3 in the first set, and the fourth-seeded Federer then fought off four break points in the ensuing game before closing out the set. Another break for a 3-2 lead in the second set
Darren Helm Jersey , not long after del Potro got his oft-problematic left wrist taped on a changeover, put Federer in control. Serving at 4-3, Federer faced a break point — Argentine fans serenaded del Potro beforehand with “Ole! Ole! Ole!” — but escaped when a serve return sailed long.
“I did my best,” the 29th-seeded del Potro said. “He played well in the break-point moments and I think that was the only difference in the match.”
The last seven Federer-del Potro matches coming into this meeting all went the distance, with some classics — the 4 12-hour, three-setter at the 2012 Olympics at Wimbledon where Federer prevailed 19-17 in the third

Federer will play 14th-seeded Roberto Bautista Agut, who needed three sets to top Sam Querrey of the US. Other third-round winners included top-seeded Stan Wawrinka, eighth-seeded David Goffin, 10th-seeded Tomas Berdych, 12th-seeded Nick Kyrgios
Luke Glendening Jersey , 16th-seeded Alexander Zverev and unseeded Adrian Mannarino.
Top-seeded Angelique Kerber made the women’s quarterfinals after beating Risa Ozaki 6-2, 6-2. Kerber next meets 11th-seeded Venus Williams, who defeated seventh-seeded Svetlana Kuznetsova 6-3, 7-6 (4) in a matchup of former Miami Open champions.
Williams fended off two set points to get into the tiebreaker, and then rallied from 4-1 down in that decider.
Caroline Wozniacki reached the quarters when Garbine Muguruza retired after the first set after feeling dizziness that she said was brought on by the heat. Wozniacki, the 12th seed
Henrik Zetterberg Jersey , took that set over the sixth-seeded Muguruza 7-6 (1). “Happy to be in the quarters,” Wozniacki said. “I feel like I’m playing well.”
Wozniacki has not dropped a set during the tournament and will next face Lucie Safarova, who upset fourth-seeded Dominika Cibulkova 7-6, 6-1. Karolina Pliskova also won, topping Czech Fed Cup teammate, and occasional doubles partner
Anthony Mantha Jersey , Barbora Strycova 6-1, 6-4.
“I was expecting a tough battle,” Pliskova said. “It was tricky in the end.”
Third-seeded Simona Halep beat 14th-seeded Samantha Stosur.
Sports betting is allowed in many countries of the world. The betting in these countries has evolved over a period of time, in some cases even centuries. The long gestation period of the sports and the associated betting has permitted the organization and fine tuning of regulations for controlling the sport betting in those countries. This has been possible to accommodate the changing perceptions and responses of the people to the wagering and also the newer technologies.
Even where the wagering on sports is allowed, the government does not give them a free hand to do whatever they want. It has to maintain a very strict control over the operations of different actors in this field to ensure that they do adhere to the regulations. The necessity of the control is essential for the following reasons:
1. Keeping the spirit of sport alive: The first and foremost concern among the regulators is that the wagering activities have a tendency to engulf the players and its officials in its embrace. Greed has always been a factor that could result in burial of sporting ethos and going for money. This hurts the very spirit of sports which is to work to the best your physical and mental abilities. Sports, it is said
Jimmy Howard Jersey , develop the character of a nation. The people who watch or hear about the sporting events feel cheated when they hear about greedy players getting mixed up with punters to play less than their ability for money.
The role of regulators is to ensure that sports betting keep away from the people associated with sports.
2. The regulatory framework is also required to make sure that money from illegal channels like drug trafficking, terrorism, etc does not flow into the markets. For, if this were to happen, the players can easily succumb to the pressures and threats which will make them engage in match-fixing. The profits from wagering in some of the sports are very high. This could mean that the winnings money is used by anti-social elements and terrorists to further their agendas.
Checks by different agencies on different players and officials are to make sure that they are not influenced by these elements and motives.
3. To encourage fair sport betting: Sports betting is done by people from all sections of the society. If the regulations were not strong, there would be a far greater number of complaints and litigation actions due to cheating and frauds. The bookmakers might delay the payoffs for long periods of time. The instances of bookies vanishing overnight defrauding the punters could have increased far more. Similarly
