Melbourne: When two of the greatest tennis players meet in a high-voltage enounter at the Australian Open men`s singles semi-final, it would be interesting to see whether Roger Federer can take the advantage of Rafael Nadal`s blister injury.
Nadal told in a press conference post his quarterfinal match, that the blister on his left palm, affected his serve, as a result of which he served slower against 22-year-old Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov in his quarter-final match. Federer who is seeking his 18th Grand Slam title, would be aware of his fact, and would want to attack Nadal`s serve.
These two have met on 32 occasions in the past, and Nadal has a 22-10 lead over the Swiss legend. Despite the blister, Rafa being a fighter would give his 100 percent and complacency is something which would be the last thing on Federer`s mind as he looks to seal a berth in the final, where his compatriot Stanislas Wawrinka would be waiting him if he wins.
