Rafael Nadal hasn’t won a title in almost 12 months, but the Spaniard moved one step closer on Wednesday night when he steamrolled Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 6-3, 6-2 to set up a semifinal with Andy Roddick at the Sony Ericsson Open in Miami.
Nadal saved four break points in the first set, showing no signs of the knee injuries that slowed him in 2009 and early 2010.
Roddick had little trouble in a 6-3, 6-3 victory over Nicolas Almagro to gain the semifinals, and is yet to drop a set in the tournament after finishing runner-up to Ivan Ljubicic in his last event at Indian Wells.
