Nadal, Murray reach Rogers Cup semis

Tennis Betting Lines

08/13/2010 - Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Two-time winner Rafael Nadal and reigning champion Andy Murray were a pair of quarterfinal winners Friday at the $2.43 million Rogers Cup, an ATP Masters event.

The world No. 1 Nadal was tested mightily in a 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 victory over quality German Philipp Kohlschreiber, who has now dropped all seven of his career encounters against the Spanish superstar.

The reigning Wimbledon and French Open champion Nadal advanced in exactly two hours, despite an 11-ace attack from Kohlschreiber, to setup a semifinal showdown with Murray. Nadal is a comfortable 8-3 lifetime against Murray, including a Wimbledon semifinal victory last month. The Spaniard also beat the Scot in a semifinal here in Toronto two years ago.

Nadal captured the Canadian Masters event in 2005 and 2008.

The fourth-seeded Australian Open runner-up Murray routed previously red-hot Argentine David Nalbandian 6-2, 6-2 in 69 minutes on the hardcourts at Rexall Centre. The two-time major runner-up Murray slugged eight aces, broke Nalbandian four times in eight tries, and held his serve throughout a surprisingly-easy victory on Day 5.

The former Wimbledon runner-up Nalbandian had won his last 11 matches on tour, including a hardcourt title at the Washington, D.C. U.S. Open Series event last week.

Murray captured this Canadian Masters tournament last year by beating another Argentine star, Juan Martin del Potro, in the final in Montreal. This event shifts between Montreal and Toronto each year.

This week's big winner will collect $443,500.
