French Open - Men's Quarterfinal
3 Rafael Nadal d 9 Stanislas Wawrinka - 62 63 61
Rafa won this match on the 8th anniversary of his 1st title (above).
Rafa is into his 8th French Open Sf: 7-0.
He'll face his main rival these days, Novak Djokovic - H2H 19-15/Rafa.
On clay: 12-3/Rafa. At the French Open: 4-0/Rafa. In finals: 8-8.
However... Since 2011 their H2H is 8-3/Nole.
And they've played once this year. On clay. Monte-Carlo final. Nole won.
So I'm going to say that Rafa is a bit of an underdog in this one.
Post match: So now I am in semi-finals, three matches in a row without
losing a set. The last two matches, I only lost one [game on] serve.
That's starting to be very positive numbers. Only numbers, but most
important thing at the end is the feeling, and the feeling is
completely different. If I was not happy five days ago about my level,
today I say I am happy that I am in semi-finals.
