NADAL WILL FACE DJOKOVIC IN ROME MASTERS FINAL


Nadal, top seeded and the No.1 player on clay court won against Fernando Gonzalez in straight sets 6-3, 6-3. Nadal extended his clay-court winning streak to 29 matches, stretching back to an opening-round loss here last year.

Nadal will face Djokovic in the sunday's final as Djokovic won the terror match against Roger Federer. Djokovic won the match with 4-6, 6-3, 6-3. Federer was not upto his mark as he gave the match to Djokovic quite easily.

Roger says" I didnt miss opportunities like this before, but this was a blunder". He hasn't won a tournament since taking the title in October at home in Basel, Switzerland. Djokovic reached his second round of consecutive Masters series final on clay, losing to Nadal in Monte Carlo Masters two weeks before. Nadal holds a 12-4 career edge over Djokovic.
In Monte carlo, Djokovic became the only player to win a set against Nadal on clay court this year.
