I've gone for Fed in 5, I hope he can finally beat Nadal (but also that it goes on for hours and hours so Nadal loses against Baker in rd2 of Queens!!).

I've gone for Rafa in five, but part of me's thinking Fed in five.. he's got to beat Rafa sometime and I have an ominous feeling about this one. But I'll be optimistic - Vamos, Rafa!!!!

I'm going to go for Nadal as I feel he's just a level above everyone else on clay even Federer plus the 5-1 record to Nadal says it all.. He's just got into Federer's head and if Nadal can be consistent on other surfaces I don't see why he can't catch Federer and become the next World no 1.

Federer's got off to a roaring start, breaking twice to take a 5-0 lead! According to the beeb, neither player is currently at his best but Federer is nearer than Nadal! Nadal currently serving to avoid getting a bagel in the first set, who'd have believed it!!

Nadal won the 3rd set 6-4 and is now 2-1 up, with a break, in the fourth. According to the Beeb updates, Federer seems really out-of-sorts.

I was devastated that Fed lost, but I have to say after the first set he played pretty much rubbish.

All credit to Nadal (who played rubbish the first set and then pulled himself together) - he did not falter, took advantage and deserved the win (ggrrrr). The undoubted King of Clay at the moment.
