Petrova, Nadal over Mauresmo, Federer

March 5, 2006

Nadia Petrova denied Amelie Mauresmo a number 1 spot. She will have to wait another week. I wasn’t expecting it. Good on you Petrova.

Meanwhile Rafael Nadal defeats Federer one more time. He now has a 3-1 record versus Federer. Perfect come back for Nadal. First defeat for Federer in the year and a build up to a possible long term rivalry for men’s tennis. The clay season with the climax at Roland Garros will certainly be engrossing.

  2. He has definitely performed better than guys like Hewitt and Roddick against whom Federer has been dominant. At least there is a chance of a big rivalry here.
