Will Baghdatis defeat Federer at Indian Wells?

Question

Marcos Baghdatis has lined up a third round match against Roger Federer at Indian Wells in 2010 thanks to his 7-6(7), 6-1 victory against veteran Arnaud Clement in the second round. Will the Cypriot beat the world No. 1?

Answer 1

History is against Baghdatis in this one – he’s lost all six previous matches against Federer, including at the Australian Open final in 2006. The 24-year old will push Federer to three sets this time, but the world No. 1 will prevail.
