More often in Masters tournaments favorites tennis players is going to be eliminated one by one and in fact the same situation was repeated in Cincinnati where suddenly the semifinals organizers have only Rafael Nadal. 27-year-old Spaniard managed to win another classic against Federer, simultaneously recording the third consecutive victory for him, to just three in 2013. Their rivalry Celebrity Mason was repeated again in Center Court, where he saw a very different Federer. Elegant, constant in the game but simultaneously more aggressive, constantly insisting the Rafa backhand-OF-s, this strategy gave the 32-year-old from Basel the first set after a break-in was in the range of 11-SET opener. The only regret perhaps to the fact that this meeting remains the same tactic did not work in the remaining two sets and it’s own merit Nadal, who became the next play all the commonly known, eventually closing figures challenge 5-7, 6-4, 6-3, in 2h 14 ‘.

Defending champion after this defeat is expected to lose two positions in the rankings, however, despite the elimination of forms displayed by Swiss tennis can be a really good omen for last Slam tournament, that in New York, which starts at the end of the month . On the other hand Nadal, who has not ever won this tournament has golden chance to go at least to the final, while facing the next match will be Tomas Berdych allowances, which leads to convincingly 15-3, the overall balance. The world number six broke out once in each set of service-n Andy Murray, providing a crucial victory 6-3, 6-4 in only 1.5 h to British tennis player, in the event of a final triumph Nadal this tour will betray precisely position in ATP classification with Spanish tennis player. In fact, the day started early with surprise and what a surprise.Novak Djokovic had no answer to the power of giant American John Isner, who won almost all meeting at 2.5 h, with the score 7-6, 3-6, 7-5, while simultaneously collecting the second win in five encounters so far between them .

The world number one with this defeat, lost the opportunity to become the first men’s player on the planet who wins any of nine Masters tournaments on the calendar, however, that his loss combined with a Rafa’s success in Ohio could bring even more tennis player with more Iberian country’s first throne, as it is known from here to the end of the season Nadal has no points to defend. Isner who in Montreal was eliminated in the first round of Vasek Pospisil still seems hopeless as’ll need to measure forces with a like Juan Martin Del Potro, who feared even the great tennis players of the quartet. Del Potro who has won all four previous meetings versus John Isner ended the hopes of the average Russian Dmitry Tursunov, after winning 6-4, 3-6, 6-1, a result that leads Cincinnati in the semifinals of Argentine tennis player for the second year in a row.
