Rafael Nadal: Just Second Fiddle in Madrid
Well, sometimes, you can't win it all - and this happened to Rafael Nadal (#1) in the Madrid Open - as he lost to Novak Djokovic, who's on a roll this season - in the finals. Even then, Rafa is still the player to beat this clay court season and is still a favorite to defend his Roland Garros crown. This was his path to the finals -
F - lost to Novak Djokovic (SRB) (#2) 57 46
SF - Roger Federer (SUI) (#3) 57 61 63
QF - Michael Llodra (FRA) (#27) 62 62
3R - Juan Martin del Potro (ARG) (#32) W/O
2R - Marcos Baghdatis (CYP) (#24) 61 63
1R - Bye
