      Rafael Nadal in shock Exit
      Jun 01, 2009 09:21:18 am
      Four-time French Open champion Rafael Nadal's reign as the king of clay has come to and end with a 6-2 6-7 (2-7) 6-4 7-6 (7-2) defeat to Robin Soderling.

      The world number one had not lost a match at Roland Garros since his debut in the clay court Grand Slam in 2005 and had looked on course for a record fifth successive title in the tournament.

      But in one of the greatest upsets in the competition's history, the Spanish star's 31-match winning run was brought to an end by the 23rd seed.

      Swede Soderling will now meet Russian 10th seed Nikolay Davydenko for a place in the semi-finals and he could not be happier.

      The title's been changed for nearly half an hour now.

      I'm expecting no more potential heart attacks!

      On the Msn home page it says:

      Where it was originally posted, the title remains the same. I too, shat myself.

      Still, I hope Rafael Nadal never wins anything ever again.  The man is a rodent. Federer seems much more classy. He always comes onto the court wearing swanky clothes and swaggering confidently with a smile on his face.
