Benneteau bids RG adieu as Del Potro advances

Having also played in the final matches of Andy Roddick and Marat Safin in the past, Del Potro knows the score: give the man bidding adieu the final word. "I tried to do my best today on Philippe-Chatrier, but Juan Martin was simply too strong in every part of the game," Benneteau admitted. "It was a nice moment to play on this court in front of my family, my friends, and to share this moment with them. It's important for me. And as I said, when I was a little kid, it was a dream to play on this court.”
