Juan Monaco, on the other hand, had a more daunting task. He had to play the top seed and defending champion, David Nalbandian. Nalbandian won the first set and was serving for the match when Monaco went on a tear and won three games in a row to clinch the second set. The third set was closer, and the two traded breaks. Monaco eventually won the third set tiebreak and upset the defending champion.

Tommy Robredo and Juan Monaco will face off in the final. Their head-to–head is even at 1-1. Monaco won this tournament in 2007, and Robredo is currently on a hot streak. The final should be good tomorrow.

Tommy looks realllly HOT in that picture, and having the two of them on the same court will be awesome, who cares who wins!

It's too bad it's not televised.
