According to CNN, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal will meet at the French Open for the first time in eight years after winning hugely different quarterfinals Tuesday in soggy and blustery Paris, France.
Roger Federer downed fellow Swiss Stan Wawrinka in a bruising three-and-a-half hour duel 7-6 (4) 4-6 7-6 (5) 6-4 on court Suzanne Lenglen, while 11-time champion Rafael Nadal had it much easier in dispatching Kei Nishikori 6-1 6-1 6-3 in under two hours on the main Philippe Chatrier court.
Federer and Nadal will go head-to-head in the Semi-Final match on Friday, June 7th at the French Open.
