The highly anticipated semifinal encounter of Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal takes place at Sony Ericsson Open Miami Masters 2011 after both players dispatched their quarterfinal opponents in contrasting fashion.
World number three Roger Federer had a shorter time at the courts after France’s Gilles Simon retired while trailing 0-3 in the first set. Nadal, on the other hand, toiled hard but eventually prevailed over Tomas Berdych of Czech Republic in three sets.
