Upset! Federer Nails Nadal in the Madrid Final, 6-4 6-4

That title sounded a little naughtier than I meant for it to. Oh well. Undoubtedly, people (or at least Nadal fans) will brush this loss off as Nadal being tired from yesterday's Djokovic slugfest or attribute it to his problematic knees. But Nadal has played sloppily all week while Federer has looked, more or less, in top form. It's a well-deserved win, and the implications for the upcoming French Open are very interesting.
