French open : Nadal into French Open quarters with 200th win!

Rafael Nadal looks unstoppable. He made light work of his 24th seeded opponent Thomaz Bellucci. The scoreline at end of the game was 6-2,7-5,6-4.

If noticed carefully, this is the same scoreline almost by which archrival Federer defeated his 4th round opponent.What does this tell us? Both the tennis gods look unstoppable, undefeatable and unrelenting in their hunt for another Grand Slam.

Nadal’s strokeplay looked ominous today! Although the Brazilian looked stiff for an average part of the game, but Nadal always broke his serve at the right moments and forced many errors on his oppnent at crucial points.

Nadal is bidding to become only the second man to win five or more French Open men’s titles, but he was distinctly under-cooked on Court Philippe Chatrier, dropping serve four times in a match featuring 12 service breaks.Nadal will face either Fernando Verdasco or Nicolas Almagro for a place in the semi-finals.Novak Djokovic, scheduled to face Nadal in the last four, also reached the quarter-finals and is convinced that the confident way he swept past Robby Ginepri makes him a threat both to the Spaniard and champion Roger Federer.
