First Masters of the season before the tour goes to Europe and clay courts and there we are in familiar surroundings Rafael Nadal in the final with Nikolay Davydenko. Federer headed home for yet another tournament in 2008 by a guy he used to torment everywhere he met him- Andy Roddick.
Nadal brushed easily past checz Tomas Berdych 7-6, 6-2 while Davydenko beat Andy roddick for the first time in six (6) years after Roddick finally managed to beat his worst nightmare Roger Federer. NO SENSE!!! You bet..
Now,in regards to the final Davydenko is the first ever Russian to reach the Miami Masters final whereas spaniards have 3 final defeats in that same tournament (http://www.atptennis.com/1/en/2008news/miami_fridaysf.asp) Both players have good records this year as well as in finals and of course are no. 2 and no. 4 in the world respectively so it should be a closely fought encounter.
Defeated semi finalist Andy Roddick compared Davydenko to Andre Aggassi sying: He doesn't give an inch. He stands kind of similar to Andre. He stands right on the baseline and picks it off each way. He kind of just picks a spot and goes for it. I think when he's on he's very, very good."
