Latest Nadal v. Federer Match

Nadal beats Federer on half-clay, half-grass court.

"The King of Clay ruled in this oddest of matches between the two best players in tennis.

Rafael Nadal beat Roger Federer 7-5, 4-6, 7-6 (10) in an exhibition Wednesday on a half-grass, half-clay court when the top-ranked Swiss failed to reach a forehand that took a funny bounce across the green side.

'We're used to playing long, hard games with a lot of tension involved,' Federer said. 'So it's fun to play on this half-grass, half-clay surface.'"
