Nadal stronger than ever in Paris
June 7, 2008
Swiss Federer, on the other hand, looked clumsy in his 6-2, 5-7, 6-3, 7-5 defeat of France's Gael Monfils on Friday, alternating brilliant shots with horrible unforced errors, spraying his forehand all over the place.
Impossible is nothing for Safina
However, the 12-times Grand Slam champion believes he has improved and will have his chances on Centre Court against Nadal, who has a 27-0 record at Roland Garros since making his debut in 2005 when he beat Argentine Mariano Puerta in the final.
"It's going to be a different match. Because Rafa is a lefty, that changes the whole dynamics of the match," said Federer, 26.
"I've been able to get off to good starts in the last few times I've played against Rafa and I hope I can do the same again on Sunday. I feel I have the right tactics, I have the right game and I have the fitness to beat him."
