MONTE CARLO, Monaco (AP) - Roger Federer will face Rafael Nadal next month in an exhibition match played on a court that is half grass and half clay.
Federer, a four-time Wimbledon champion, is the world's best grass-court player. Nadal has won the last two French Open titles and has a 64-match winning streak on clay."The result is not the most important thing. It's about having fun out there," the top-ranked Federer said Thursday at the Monte Carlo Masters. "It's going to be exciting and a good atmosphere. It doesn't always need to be crazy serious out on the match courts."
The exhibition match will take place on May 2 in Mallorca, Spain, where the second-ranked Nadal was born.
"It's very nice for both of us," Nadal said. "It will be a nice experience. The tickets are complete (sold out)."
Hahaha. I can't imagine how bloody confusing that match is going to be! I wanna watch too!
Unrelated note: Danny and Oswald got eliminated today on Amazing Race. I'm bummed. They raced pretty damn badly over the past 2 legs, but still. I love Danny and Oswald a lot ok. Now I don't even think I want to watch the finale. It's always like this when you get too attached in reality television.

I'm still going with Feds. In 3 sets. They should televise this... the person who came up with the idea is GENIUS.
And cheer up about Danny and Oswald.
