HIs forehand is looking exquisite at the moment.

Fed coming to play. Rafa better settle in and quick.

Sloppy there from Fed, he didn't put away/drill the volley and missed out on double break point.

Amazing start from Fed thus far.

Hardly had to move his service games, serve has been sharp he's even got an ace, and he's nailing his forehands with pace and accuracy. No real long rallies on his service games. Nearly two love games off his serve. Fed's backhand even looks pretty good, which it will have to be if he hopes to beat Nadal. Oh and he broke Nadal's first service game.

Fed is moving Nadal all up and down that baseline, pretty cheeky drop shot attempt. Barely missed!

Would'be been an early back-breaker.

Looking good for Federer early....He needs to make this a 3-4 setter...If it goes to 5, I think he's fricked.

I agree. Rafa is a beast in the long setters. Rodge needs to take advantage of this early break no doubt.

I think Nadal's definitely got a set in him, but yes if it goes to 5 it would favor Nadal.
