Federer and Nadal heat up competition
Roger Federer today faced American hopeful and former top player Taylor Dent. Dent was having one of his best weeks of play after being down for at least 3 years with back injuries. The Fed Express showed no mercy as he took out the American with an simple score of 63 62. Federer will next face another American Andy Roddick in the quarters.
Rafael Nadal on the other hand had a little bit of a shaky performance against Stanislas Wawrinka. Nadal was clearly unhappy with his performance as he showed frustration in his 76(2) 76(4) victory. He will now face Argentine Juan Martin del Potro, against who he has a good record. But who knows, he had a good record over Wawrinka too.

Nadal continues superb run
Rafael Nadal just keeps winning and winning. Today he won against Portuguese qualifier Frederico Gil. This time Nadal was challenged more than last time, with Gil just being two points away from sealing the first set at 4-5, 15-30 on Nadal's serve. But Nadal proved too strong as he took the first set 75. The second set got the crowd turning in their seats as Gil took a 2-0 lead, but Nadal once again hit back and took the next six of seven games to clinch victory in 1 hour and 35 minutes. The score was 75 63. Nadal is looking for his first Sony Ericsson Open crown.
Andy Murray also made it to the fourth round as he won to Nicolas Massu 64 64, and Juan Martin del Potro took out Janko Tipsarevic with a score of 64 61.
