Henman has upper hand

Tim Henman moved a step closer to a quarter-final against world number one Roger Federer at the ABN AMRO World Tennis Tournament in Rotterdam after winning the first set of his second round tie with the Czech Republic’s Tomas Cakl.

Although the match was a step into the unknown for the fifth seed, who had never met his Czech opponent before, Henman claimed the upper hand as he took the first set 6-2.
