'We know each other very well. I played her at the U.S. Open, but that match doesn't mean anything tomorrow.'

Federer

Meanwhile, in Switzerland, Roger Federer fought back to record a 4-6 6-3 6-2 win over Denis Istomin at the Swiss Indoors Wednesday.

The five-time champion recovered well after a slow start and remains on course for the end of season finals in London next month.

'I stared poorly, making too many errors, especially on the forehand,' Federer told reporters.

'I was risking too much and it was not paying off.

'I had to cut that risk and was a bit lucky to win. I started fighting back and got better as the match went on.

'I'm happy that I was able to turn it around, I needed a match like this.'
