Nadal and Murray likely to complete the Big Four
Nadal and Murray predicted to power into Australian Open semis
MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA - - World No. 1 Rafael Nadal and five-seed Andy Murray are seen to make their way into the semi-final line- up at the Australian Open Wednesday, completing the tournament’s Big Four.
The Australian Associated Press made the predictions after No. 2 seed Roger Federer and World No. 3 Novak Djokovic have already taken their places, both taking straight sets quarter final wins Tuesday.
The AAP said that Spanish superstar Nadal and Scottish ace Murray are likely to join Ferrer and Djokovic and they are expected to give tennis aficionados and supporters a ‘dream set of final match-ups’.
Murray is noted to have played stronger this year than last year as he recorded a combined total of only 22 games in his four matches. The winner of six Masters 1000 series is facing unseeded Ukrainian Alexander Dolgopolov.
Nadal on the other hand is playing Spanish David Ferrer in their next fight and the World No. 1 is clearly in an advantage position having beaten the seventh seed Ferrer in seven matches in the past.
