Monte-Carlo ATP Masters 1000 - Semifinal
1 Rafael Nadal d 3 Andy Murray - 64 26 61
Rafa won thru to the final in a 2:58 thrilling near-instant classic.
Murray did so well to take a set - only the 3rd Rafa has lost on clay in 2 years.
This was Rafa's 200th Masters 1000 match win. He has only 40 losses.
Tomorrow he will be going fo an unprecidented 7th consecutive title in MC.
If he loses tomorrow it'll be his latest into a year without a title since '04.
He'll play Ferrer in the final - who'll be eager to win his 1st Masters title.
Their H2H: 11-4/RN but David won the previous match at the Aussie.
8-1 on clay: David's one win came way back at Stuttgart in '04.
This will be their 3rd meeting in M-C and David has yet to take a set.
Remember, Rafa beat him here last year in the Sf's 62 63.
Will Murray have given Ferrer enough of an assist today? Hmm...
This is Rafa's 3rd straight Masters final (0-2) & he's going for #19 overall.
This has all the makings of a very interesting match.
My sleeping pattern is so jacked.
