I predicted this. Oh yeah! Davydenko won in a 3rd set tiebreak (4-6 6-4 7-6(1)) Will likely face Nadal in the final, who he has a 2-4 record against, but is playing the best of his life and Rafa is injured so who knows? In case of an upset, he actually has a worse record vs. Lopez (1-4) though the Russian won their last meeting. Davydenko's biggest career win (the Miami '08 tournament) was over Rafael Nadal so the shortest Top 10 player (who has moved from #9 in YTD points to #7, putting him in a better position for the ATP Final; and I don't really get rankings but I think he might pass Tsonga for #7 in Rankings, or maybe even #6 over Roddick if he wins) has a real chance here.
