A funny thing happened on the way to Federer - Nadal.
Who?
Why, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga of course.
He's the flame-throwing, forehand-smacking, serve-bombing, fearless, rousing, engaging, energetic, fantastic, upstart Frenchman who has mowed through the likes of Andy Murray, Richard Gasquet, Mikhail Youzhny, and finally, the seemingly indestructable Rafael Nadal.
I remember seeing him a few years ago at the US Open and agreeing with the commentators when they said that he had uncommon shot-making ability (I'll say, he had 49 winners against Nadal!) but was a bit heavy and immature.
Boy, did he turn things around fast.
I'm not saying he's going to defeat Fed, but I think it'll be an entertaining match all the way.
