Roger Federer masterclass stuns Rafael Nadal in Tour Finals
Roger Federer rolled back the years with a truly astonishing performance to destroy fierce rival Rafael Nadal and storm into the last four of the ATP World Tour Finals.
Federer had lost nine of their last 11 meetings but subjected the Spaniard to an indoor masterclass in front of a spellbound full house at London's O2 Arena.
The Swiss legend reeled off one incredible forehand winner after another in the first set before somehow lifting his game several levels in the second, and Nadal simply had no answer.
Federer cantered to a breathtaking victory, winning 6-3 6-0 in exactly an hour to book his place in the semi-finals with a match to spare.
The 30-year-old said the victory would rank as one of his all-time favourites.
"It's definitely one of the nice ones, that's clear. I had some good ones in my lifetime but this one ranks high because it's against my biggest rival.
"To come through so convincingly is great for me because we know Rafa has a certain standard which he does not go below."
