Third set | Federer 2, Nadal 1
Nadal has the edge over Federer in semifinals.
For much of their careers, Federer and Nadal took turns at No. 1 and No. 2 in the rankings, so they could only meet in tournament finals. This is the only the fifth time they have faced each other in a Grand Slam semifinal, and Nadal has won them all — at the French Open in 2005 and 2019 and the Australian Open in 2012 and 2014.
