Semifinals
Rafael Nadal (1) vs. Tomas Berdych (7)
I think Berdych could win this match, but my guess is that a Rafa-Nole collision is on the horizon. Berdych’s chance is to play first strike tennis and take control of points off of his serve and his return. If Rafa serves well enough, I think he will get his teeth into points and dictate play. Rafa dictating = victory and Rafa on the defensive is far from a sure thing for Berdych so my pick is Nadal d. Berdych 7-6, 6-2
