Hamburg Masters: Federer and Nadal Move On
In the wake of Justine Henin’s retirement earlier today, everything else pales in comparison. Even the fact that Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are still going strong in the hunt for the Hamburg Masters title.
Federer blew past Jarkko Nieminen 6-1, 6-3 to reach the third round. Nadal struggled a bit with Potito Starace but finally got the W 6-4, 7-6(8-6).
Actually that’s not that interesting. But this is interesting. In James Martin’s Viewpoint column on Tennis.com, he talks about the hype surrounding the “looming” shake-up at the top of the men’s tour. And then he points out that the statistics actually don’t show that…Roger, Rafa and Novak are all just about where they were last year, give or take a loss or two.
Interesante, no?
