6 Spaniards into the 8 Semifinal Spots on Offer in ATP 250's at Bastad & Stuttgart

And we're not even talking about the 2 in the top 10 - Nadal & Verdasco.

***

Bastad ATP 250

1 Robin Soderling vs 3 David Ferrer - H2H: 6-2

Remember Robin just won 7-5 in the 5th in the 4th Round at Wimbledon.

This is their 3rd meeting in Bastad: 1-1.

4 Nicolas Almagro vs 5 Tommy Robredo (above) - H2H: 1-0

Strange they've only met once - in Hamburg '07.

Tommy could use this win as he's having an awful year: 11-12.

Tommy did have a great win today beating Verdasco in the quarters.

***

Stuttgart ATP 250

3 Gael Monfils vs Daniel Gimeno Traver - H2H: 0-0

#17 vs #88 - Monfils should have this but... maybe a Davis Cup hangover?

4 Juan Carlos Ferrero vs 5 Albert Montanes - H2H: 5-0

JC had a wonderful South American clay court swing - 2 titles in 3 finals.

Then he fell apart on Euro clay leading up to Roland Garros.

Now he's rocking the clay again...  Where was this a couple months ago?
