If only Feliciano Lopez won his quarterfinal today over Croatian Ivan Dodig, it would've been an all-Spanish semifinal affair at this year's Barcelona Open. Nevertheless, the top three players who are shaping up to be the top clay players of this season, Rafael Nadal, David Ferrer and Nicolas Almagro, have proceeded to make their semifinals appearance in this event. Nadal will meet Dodig for the first time. It should not be difficult to ascertain who'll win that. David Ferrer also holds a 6-0 head-to-head over Almagro, and three wins were also on clay. Their last meeting was on clay in Acapulco. A Ferrer - Nadal final in the works!
