The rivalry on clay between Spanish compatriots Rafael Nadal and David Ferrer continues to spill over to Barcelona this week. Both guys played in the finals of Monte Carlo last week, with Nadal victorious. Today, both players dispatched off their opponents with clinical efficiency. Nadal only allowed Dodig five games, 63 62, while Ferrer allowed Almagro seven, 63 64. Nadal though, is still the guy to beat but let's see how Ferrer deals with him in the finals.
