Roger Federer just lost in Round 1 at the Barclays Dubai Tennis Championships to No. 11 Andy Murray. The score was 7-6, 3-6, 4-6. What's going on???
This is even more of a blow considering today's recent ATP Tennis Rankings has Federer at 6330, just 400 pts. from Nadal's 5,930. Next week Federer will be even more behind.
Let's face it. Federer is going to have to work his tail off to win the next slam: The French Open. And we all know who's the King of Clay. It looks like come May we could have a new No. 1.
The Dubai Championships started today. Come back for updates.

i'm shocked. but i'm sorta relieved, too. i enjoy bigtime tennis when it's competitive ... as much as i respect hall-of-famers like Roger and, not so long ago, Pete, i get bored when it looks like every tournament will have the same outcome.
