Federer Beats Nadal To Win Madrid Clay Masters!

Shocking almost all prognosticators World #2 Roger Federer defeated World #1 Rafael Nadal in straight sets 6-4 6-4 to win the Madrid Masters 1000 title in 86 minutes. This is the first time in 6 matches that Federer has defeated Nadal, and is only the second time in 20 matches that he has beaten the Spaniard on his best surface of clay. Their overall head-to-head score is 13-7 (in favor of Nadal).

Nadal was thwarted in his attempt to become the first man to win all three clay court Masters tournaments in a single season by his arch-nemesis, the 13-time grand slam champion.
