Nadal Beat Murray; Faces Ferrer In Monte Carlo Final
Rafael Nadal outlasted Andy Murray 6-4 2-6 6-1 to reach his seventh consecutive Monte Carlo final, while David Ferrer demolished Jurgen Melzer 6-3 6-2 to set up an all-Spanish final. The Nadal-Murray clash lasted nearly 3 hours and featured the first set Nadal had lost in Monte Carlo since 2009. He has now won 36th consecutive matches there dating back to 2004. Last year, Nadal embarrassed fellow Spaniard Fernando Verasco 6-0 6-1 to win the tournament for the 6th consecutive time.
