Federer and Nadal ease into the 4th Round

Federer defeats Karlovic 7-6, 7-5, 6-3 and Nadal defeats Lacko 6-2, 6-4, 6-2. Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal blazed into their fourth round with decisive victories over their opponents. Starting with Roger Federer, his three-set victory was harder than his counterpart's. Karlovic's huge serve allowed him to push it to the tiebreak in the first set. However, Roger barely won it with some signature Swiss precision and took the tiebreak 8-6. The second set was no less competitive but Roger still managed to get the break later on and win the 2nd set 7-5. The last set showed a slight drop in the big server's performance, allowing Federer to wrap up the match 6-3 in elegance. Moving on to Nadal, Nadal showed renewed ambition and athleticism in his match where he DESTROYED the little known Lacko. The first set was absolutely one-sided as Nadal blistered through it with 2 breaks of serve. The 2nd set showed some resistance from Lacko, who slightly upped his game but still fell victim to the Spaniard's imperious and vicious top-spin forehand. The last set was almost identical to the first, showing even more dominance from the Spaniard. It appears as though a semifinal clash will be inevitable. The question remains though, who will win? I've predicted Federer in 4 but its starting to look like it might be a 5 set marathon match.
