ATP World Tour Finals Semi-Finals

ATP World Tour Finals Singles


Nadal beat Murray 7-6(5), 3-6, 7-6(6). Nadal beats Murray in an epic match, which is 3 hours and 10 minutes. Nadal looks like he is on for an easy win after having a break point in the second set but when he fails to take it, his game begins to fall apart as Murray takes the next 5 games in a row. And with Murray with 2 break points at 1-0 up in the final set, the match looks over but then Nadal plays amazingly to save them and take the game and once again Nadal looks in control when he breaks Murray's serve. After this game Murray has a few break points until Nadal has a match point at 5-3 on Murray's serve but drops it and Murray looks in control again as he goes 6-5 up after holding serve twice and breaking once. Nadal then holds so that the match goes to a tie breaker. Murray immediately goes 3-0 up and then 4-1 up but Nadal turns things around to get a match point at 6-5 up on Murray's serve. Murray saves the match point but Nadal then goes 7-6 up with a match point on his serve and Nadal finishes the match with a great cross-court forehand. He will play either Djokovic or Federer in the Final tomorrow.

Federer beat Djokovic 6-1, 6-4. The second seed eases past the third seed, to set up a dream final with Rafael Nadal.
