# The teenage Federer [18] was gathering his first experiences in important Grand Slam matches facing Corretja [13] on Philippe Chartier court. The Swiss lost in three sets to Corretja his first fourth round match in majors (2000), one year later lost to the Spaniard his first quarterfinal after very similar match. Only two points separated the total points comparing those two matches. Federer was a bit closer to win a set in their first Parisian meeting as he had a set point in the tie-break, in their second encounter he was the closest in the opening set (three points away at 5:4*)
