Nadal Clinches Year-End No. 1

"Frenchman Gilles Simon advanced to his first ATP Masters Series final after an exhilarating 3-6, 7-5, 7-6(6) victory over World No. 1 and home favorite Rafael Nadal in the semifinals of the Mutua Madrilena Masters Madrid on Saturday." - ATP

Oh, i'm so sad! But i really don't feel sorry for Rafa because just by reaching the semifinals in Madrid, he finally kicked Federer's butt out of the number one spot! No one would ever argue if i say that Nadal is the greatest player in tennis history. He won five masters titles, two grand slams cups, and the prestigious gold in Beijing Olympics.. all within the year! I always love his electrifying presence on court. My husband and i are his biggest fans!

Next on ATP Calendar:

October 26 - BNP Paribas Masters (Paris, France)

November 9 - Tennis Master Cup (Shanghai, China)
