Tennis-Federer's had it easy, says last man to reach third round

(Corrects fourth para to remove reference to closed roof) By John Stonestreet LONDON, July 2 (Reuters) - As the last man through the door, German teenager Alexander Zverev finally reached Wimbledon's third round on Saturday after multiple rain breaks -- and had a message for organisers and the sporting great already sitting pretty a further round ahead. Seeded 24th, Zverev battled past Russian dangerman Mikhail Youzhny, but it took him three hours and 19 minutes of court time to close out the final second-round match in the draw 6-4 3-6 6-0 3-6 6-2. The last five games were played on Saturday, the day after third seed Roger Federer sealed his place in the fourth round with a straight-sets win over Briton Dan Evans. The match was Federer's third in a row on Centre Court in what has been a rain-ravaged tournament. Asked if putting Federer's match under the roof was fair at a time when he had yet to complete the previous round, Zverev told reporters: "He's a seven-time champion here. I can't complain about it." Federer acknowledged the disparity with a touch of humour after his match on Friday, telling a news conference: "I'm sorry ... I have to take (days off) when I can. I'm an old guy". For 19-year-old Zverev, meanwhile, the circumstances are less ideal. "It was difficult. I warmed up about eight times (for the Youzhny match) ... I have to play tomorrow now. It's not an easy schedule," said the German. Meanwhile, Federer, over whom Zverev scored a first win in the Wimbledon warm-up event in Halle to enhance his standing as a potential future champion, will be able to rest. "He will get today and tomorrow off. I have to play yesterday, today, and tomorrow and then maybe Monday," the German added. (Editing by Ed Osmond)
