Rafael Nadal won a grinding two-hour battle with his comrade Spaniard David Ferrer Tuesday to reach the Sony Ericsson Open quarter-finals as his comeback continues to gather momentum.
After a hard struggle in the first set in which both players traded heavy blows from the baseline, Nadal looked headed for a routine win when he raced to a 3-0 lead in the second. But Ferrer continued to attack and pushed Nadal all the way before the six-time Grand Slam champion triumphed 7-6(5), 6-4 in 1 hr., 57 mins.
Both spanish players are awesome players. Even thought Nadal won, Ferrer has a lot to demonstrate in the following tournaments. He has trained very hard seesn that past one year and a have, and has been humbold, and doesn't show of. On the other hand, we can see how Nadal has improved, and how he has come back to be the greatest player he was.
