Nadal Wins "Battle Of The Surfaces"
The image below says it all. Rafael Nadal took on Roger Federer in front of 7000 people in Palma de Mallorca last night on a half-grass, half-clay tennis court. Having to change shoes at every change of ends was probably a bit tiresome, but the pair put on a great show, with Nadal winning in a blockbuster third set tiebreaker, 7-5, 4-6, 7-6(10). Maybe the home crowd support got him over the line. Seems like a fun concept, wish I'd been there!
