It would happen. Nadal has enviable records on clay. And is virtually unbeatable. I guess I missed out the word 'virtually' in my last post.
Two days after I make sweeping statements about Nadal having no challengers along comes Juan Carlos Ferrero (pictured above) to make me eat my words.
7-5 6-1 read the final scoreboard and Nadal is out of the Rome Masters.
Nadal blames a foot injury for his loss. That makes him seem mortal, an idea that seems so alien during the clay court season.
So who will take his place? I will make no more predictions. After all my entire pick for this week's Bracket Challenge (ATP's competition where you predict the winner of each round of the ongoing Masters tournament) has gone down the drain.
Crossing my fingers for a Federer win though.
