Article Source: http://www.articlesbase.com/ – Old Boys Fight Out Epic to Meet Nadal in Semi-finals

Sometimes you have to simply admire the determination of the top sportspeople and after following five hours and 12 minutes of play on Court One over two rain-delayed days at Wimbledon, hats should be doft to Reiner Scheuttler and Arnaud Clement especially as they knew the victor would have to return the following day to face the unenviable task of taking on the fully-rested Rafael Nadal on centre court.

The veterans – both in their thirties – began their match on Wednesday afternoon on a fine Summers afternoon in South West London but soon after the rain began to, well, rain down on SW19 with the players returning to the dressing room after managing just one set of tennis, which Scheuttler won 6-3. The heavens eased and the players returned to the court in an attempt to complete their match but were forced off due to bad light and returned to action at 1pm the following day tied at one set all.

Scheuttler appeared the better player on Thursday afternoon and really took the game to his French counterpart, Clement hung in and forced a tie break but was soon behind once again in the set decider, falling to a 6-0 deficit almost in the blink of an eye and it looked certain that the German was going to take the third set. Betting on tennis however can sometimes lead to many heart in mouth’s situations where the seemingly impossible becomes a reality and as Scheuttler took is foot off the gas Clement clawed the breaker back to 6-6. The 32-year-old regained his composure though, claiming the next two points to take the set 7-6 (8-6).

By this point you would have thought that both men would have been exhausted from their earlier exchanges but if that was the case it did not show, fighting their way through the fourth set with one point standing alone as the finest of the match.

After a super rally Scheuttler looked as though he had won the point, racing to pick up a deliciously executed drop-shot from Clement but the Frenchman showed all the dogged determination which has been a mainstay throughout his career to hunt down the angled return, flicking the ball back across court to which Scheuttler replied with a perfectly hit cross-court pass yet somehow the 30-year-old stretched out a backhand to volley back down court and end an enthralling passage of play. It is no wonder the match lasted so long with rallies like this! It is hard to imagine how the bandanna sporting Clement managed to reach the winning volley but it surely has something to do with his remarkable doubles talent, after all he and Michael Llodra are the reigning men’s doubles Champions at Wimbledon.

The fourth set went to a tie-break which rather predictably Clement won – after all this match had to go the distance – and just to follow suit the breaker finished 7-9.

Early on in the fifth it appeared that it was going to be the Frenchman’s day, breaking Scheuttler’s serve but on cue the unseeded Scheuttler broke back, saving a match point with the set at 5-4.

The precipitation perplexed players and audience once more as the final set was halted at 6-6 40-40 on Clement’s serve and after the delay, Scheuttler wasted no time, breaking his opponents serve before holding on to his own, taking this epic match 6-3 5-7 7-6 (8-6) 6-7 (7-9) 8-6.

We can only hope – for the sake of a match rather than walk-over – that Scheuttler can recover from this testing encounter to take on Nadal, a man more than 10 years his junior on Friday afternoon otherwise although already crowned King of clay the betting would point to Rafa being given yet another shot at dethroning Federer on the lawns of the All England Club come Sunday evening.
