Tennis On Tennis: Quarterfinal Preview – Roger Federer vs. Juan Martin del Potro

World No. 3 Roger Federer takes on Argentine Juan Martin del Potro in the first of two quarterfinal matches on Tuesday in Melbourne. The two have met nine times previously, with their most notable battle in the 2009 US Open final, which was won by del Potro. The  Argentine prevented Federer from winning sixth consecutive US Open title, and also announced himself as a serious contender.

It has been a pretty straight forward draw for both players to this point. Federer started against Alex Kudryavtsev, and moved into the third round after he was given a walkover by Andreas Beck. He faced big serving Ivo Karlovic and then local favorite Bernard Tomic. Federer has not dropped a set to this point. It is Federer’s 31st consecutive quarterfinal appearance, and he will be playing in his 1,000th ATP level match. He has won 1,999 sets to this point in his career. Federer brings along a 23 match winning streak into this match.

Del Potro had to beat Adrian Mannarino in the opening round and then followed that up with easy victories against Blaz Kavcic, Yen-hsun Lu and Philipp Kohlschreiber en route to the quarterfinals.

Del Potro was forced to miss the entire 2010 season due to a wrist injury, but has battled his way back to the top 10 in the world. Del Potro is still considered a dark-horse, however, any player would be foolish to think that way.

Last year, Del Potro claimed two ATP World Tour titles and also earned the ATP comeback player of the year award. He also led his country to Davis Cup final.

This will be the tenth meeting between the two, with Federer leading 9-2 in the head-to-head. In their last meeting Federer beat the Argentine in the second-round of the Cincinnati ATP Masters, in straight sets.

I expect this to be a tightly contested match up. With the current form that Federer has been showing since his US Open loss to Djokovic, he should be able to come through. Federer in four.

Tennis On Tennis: Day 5 Recap – Federer and Nadal Advance to Round of 16

Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer, in the same half of a Grand Slam singles draw for the first time since 2005, are well on their way to a potential semifinal matchup at the Australian Open.

Neither Federer or Nadal have dropped a set, although Federer enjoyed a walkover win in the second round. The longtime rivals played back-to-back matches at Rod Laver Arena on Friday afternoon, something that doesn’t usually happen until the semis. Nadal showed no problems of his recent knee concerns, while moving briskly around the court in a 6-2 6-4 6-2 win over qualifier Lukas Lacko.

Federer followed in a tricky third round match up, by defeating Ivo Karlovic 7-6 (6) 7-5 6-3,  saving a set point in the tiebreaker with a surprising lob from in close to the net over the 6-foot-10 Croatian. Federer will play Australian teenager Bernard Tomic on Sunday in the round of 16.

“He gave me a second serve and gave me a slight chance,” Federer said. “Might have had a little bit of a lucky volley. …”

“It was unlucky … one in a 100 that I’m going to lose that point,” Karlovic said. “I didn’t really expect him to do that. I was there, I just miscalculated how much I was jumping. If I would have won that, everything would be different, but that’s life.”

Nadal had few problems in his match against Lacko. His main concern is the durability of his knee, after he felt a sharp pain while sitting in his chair in his hotel on the weekend.

Nadal says “the knee is fine … being in the fourth round without losing a set, it’s fantastic news.”

Nadal will next meet Spaniard Feliciano Lopez, who defeated No. 16 John Isner 6-3 6-7 (3) 6-4 6-7 (0) 6-1.

It is the first time in the Open Era that no American men have reached the fourth round at the Australian Open. The last American to win the Australian Open was Andre Agassi in 2003, his third win in four years at Melbourne Park.

“It’s very ugly, to be honest, to have no one in the round of 16 … very disappointing, not a good effort from the Americans,” Isner said. “We’ve got to try to rectify that next time the big tournaments roll around.”

No. 7 Tomas Berdych beat No. 30 Kevin Anderson of South Africa 7-6 (5), 7-6 (1), 6-1 and will next play No. 10 Nicolas Almagro of Spain, who beat 21st-seeded Stanislas Wawrinka of Switzerland 7-6 (2), 6-2, 6-4.

Germany’s Philipp Kohlschreiber defeated Alejandro Falla of Colombia 6-3, 6-2, 7-6 (3), 11th-seeded Juan Martin del Potro beat Yen-Hsun Lu of Taiwan 6-2, 6-3, 6-0 and Tomic defeated 13th-seeded Alexandr Dolgopolov of Ukraine 4-6, 7-6 (0), 7-6 (6), 2-6, 6-3. Del Potro plays Kohlschreiber in the fourth round.

Defending champion and top-seeded Novak Djokovic and fourth-seeded Andy Murray, who has lost in the final at Melbourne Park the last two years, play their third-round matches Saturday, with a Djokovic-Murray replay only possible in the semis.

Tennis On Tennis: Australian Open Preview – Roger Federer’s Quarter

Roger Federer begins his 2012 Australian open riding an 18 match winning streak. However, he was forced to withdraw from his last event in Doha with a back injury. The questions regarding his health have taken away from what was an amazing finish to the 2011 season. If Federer can regain that form, he should be a serious threat to unseat Novak Djokovic from his 2011 title.

Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are in the same half of a Grand Slam draw for the first time in seven years, and could very well end up opposite each other in a blockbuster semifinal.

Federer opens his tournament against a qualifier, and is drawn in the same quarter as Mardy Fish. There is a potential match up with Juan Martin del Potro in the quarters, and he could face youngsters Bernard Tomic, and Alexandr Dolgopolov.

Barring any health concerns, Federer has a very manageable draw. His only real test could come from Juan Martin del Potro, if he is able to come through his side of the quarter.

Federer is the odds-makers favorite behind Novak Djokovic, and rightfully so. He should be in top form come next week, and I fully expect him to come out of his quarter.

World Group Semi-Finals

Spain vs France

Rafael Nadal blasted Richard Gasquet, just four days after his US Open loss to Novak Djokovic, 6-3 6-0 6-1. The French captain Guy Forget was banking on the second rubber however, with Gilles Simon facing David Ferrer. The outcome was not what they were hoping for as Ferrer dismantled Simon, 6-1 6-4 6-1. It was a bitter setback for Forget’s team.

“It’s very painful to watch your players suffer against such a good team,” said Forget. “They played alright but to beat Spain in Spain you have to play great.”

Serbia vs Argentina

In what seemed like a foregone conclusion, Novak Djokovic was forced to pull out of this weekend’s World Group semifinals with a back injury. In his place, Viktor Troiki was handed a tough match against Davis Cup veteran David Nalbandian. Nalbandian proved that he is a Davis Cup specialist defeating the Serbian in four sets, 6-4 4-6 6-2 6-3. Janko Tipsarevic will have the tough task of trying to defeat Juan Martin Del Potro to even the tie.

Switzerland vs Australia

Way down under, in Australia, the Swiss are tied with the Aussies 1-1, after Bernard Tomic was able to upset Swiss No. 2 Stanislas Wawrinka. However, Roger Federer was able to even the tie, with a four set defeat of Lleyton Hewitt, avenging his heart-breaking Davis Cup loss eaight years earlier.

‘It was a big victory for me, after a rough last week,’ said Federer, alluding to his semifinal loss to Novak Djokovic in the US Open, after holding two match points. ‘Definitely one of the biggest wins of my career.’
