Fernando defeated 7th seed Marin Cilic reached the quarterfinals at the Sony Ericsson Open, successfully defending his points from last year. Third time seemed to be the charm for Fernando, who had been defeated by Cilic twice in both their previous hard court meetings, but something was working right for Fernando today as he took a straight sets win in just under two hours, just as the sun was setting over Key Biscayne.
Tomrorow, Fernando and Feliciano will take on Tommy and Nico for a spot in the doubles semifinals. Fernando will play Tomas Berdych who took down top seed Roger Federer, for a spot in the semifinals.
Vamos Fernando! Unexpectedly good win today, so few DFs! :D Good luck against T-Berd in the quarters. Try and improve on Indian Wells please!
