Roger-Rafa exhibition

21.11.2006 | Tennis

The world's top two players, Roger and Rafael Nadal, are in Seoul, South Korea, preparing for an invitational exhibition match to be held in Seoul tonight. The pair held a joint press conference yesterday.

 

The exhibition, hosted by Sema Sports Marketing Inc., will take place at the Chamsil Gymnasium at 6 p.m. (9 a.m. GMT). The match will be shown via live stream on KBS 2 TV (see link below).

 

This is the first exhibition match between the two players, who have played six matches this year. Nadal won the first four encounters, including Roland Garros, while Roger won the last two, at Wimbledon and then at last week's Tennis Masters Cup in Shanghai. Our World No. 1 defeated Nadal in the semifinals, 6-4, 7-5, and then overpowered American James Blake to claim the title.

Congratulations!!

As much as we want to watch you play all the time, it is time for you to take your well-deserved holiday. That should be #1 on your list since you only have 1 1/2 months of rest (+ practice!) until the start of another busy 2007 seaso

Didn't see the match but I knew you would win.
I'm sure the 36 was just to give the sponsors their money worth. Althought it was only an invitational it is now 6-4, and more importantly 3 in a row. Next year when you beat Nadal on clay I don't know what

KS TV is so generous that they let us watch the match on line. You guys looked so relaxed. Your laughs made me smile to myself. (I hardly see you laugh or even smile during the match.) I think actually you can beat Rafa in two straight sets but you just
