Federer-Nadal to face in French semis Unlisted Video

(CNN)Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal will meet at the French Open for the first time in eight years after winning hugely different quarterfinals Tuesday in soggy and blustery Paris. While Federer downed fellow Swiss Stan Wawrinka in a bruising three-and-a-half hour duel 7-6 (4) 4-6 7-6 (5) 6-4 on court Suzanne Lenglen, 11-time champion Nadal had it much easier in dispatching Kei Nishikori 6-1 6-1 6-3 in under two hours on the main Philippe Chatrier court.
