Injured Nadal out of Aus Open

Rafael Nadal to start practicing again in 2 weeks

It was only the second time in 264 Grand Slam matches that Spaniard Nadal has retired - the last being against Briton Andy Murray in the quarter-finals of the 2010 Australian Open.

Former US Open champion Cilic produced a hugely impressive display on Rod Laver Arena, his stinging, flat forehands a particularly potent weapon throughout a contest that was brought to a premature end after three hours and 47 minutes.

EVEN though one of his potential opponents is arguably the greatest player of all-time and the other is an unheralded youngster, Marin Cilic refuses to say who he'd rather play in Sunday's Australian Open final.

The tie runs from February 2-4, with matches set to be played on clay at Marbella's Puente Romano Sports Complex. I said I have to write Rafa see how he's doing.

The top seed was in visible pain on court and Cilic of Croatia will now face British number two Kyle Edmund in the semi-finals following his 3-6, 6-3, 6-7 (5-7), 6-2, 2-0 victory. Kerber is on a 13-match winning streak while 17th-seeded Keys beat No. 8 Caroline Garcia in the fourth round. "Very, very high level", Cilic said after advancing when Nadal retired down 6-3, 3-6, 7-6 (5), 2-6, 0-2.

Doctors say 13-year-old Maryland boy came just a millimeter from bleeding to death after a screw pierces his skill, CNN reports. Justin Thomas, a neurosurgeon at Southside Hospital in Bay Shore, New York, who was not involved in the boy's case.

"I think I improved it comparing to end of the past year".

"And he has, I think, matured, I think, playing really, really good tennis, entertaining to watch".

Cilic said the circumstances surrounding his All England Club defeat by Federer a year ago - he suffered badly from a nasty blister on his left foot - meant it would not be a personal score for him to settle if the pair was to meet again here. I can not influence him much across the net, but going to try to take care of my things on my part of the court. Now they're meeting the quarterfinals at Melbourne Park after Chung upset six-time champion Novak Djokovic in the fourth round and Sandgren beat 2014 Australian victor Stan Wawrinka and fifth-seeded Dominic Thiem en route to the final eight. "I think that helped me a lot going into this week". "The main thing I focus on is I'm in a good place", Edmund said.

"I mean, it was on me that I couldn't give my best in Wimbledon, and that happens". "There's no reason why I can't go out there and put a good level on the court, enjoy the occasion again".

He was looking to join Murray and John Lloyd as the only British male singles finalists at Melbourne Park in the Open era. Cilic made Croatian history by reaching the last four as well.
