ATP World Tour Finals Round Robin Results and Semifinal Matchups.


Round robin play at the ATP World Tour Finals has concluded.  3 of the top 4 ranked players are going home, and will not be crowned the season ending champion.

Group A Final Results:
Roger Federer  2-1
Juan Martin Del Potro  2-1
Andy Murray  2-1
Fernando Verdasco  0-3

Federer and Del Potro advance to semifinals over Murray by percentage of games won.  Verdasco went 0-3 but lost close hard fought matches in all 3 of his matches. 

Group B Final Results:
Robin Soderling 2-1
Nikolay Davydenko 2-1
Novak Djokovic  2-1
Rafael Nadal  0-3

Nadal dropped a goose egg and Djokovic was eliminated by the tiebreaker rule.  In an upset Soderling and Davydenko advance to the semifinals.

The Semifinal matchups look like this:
Roger Federer  vs.  Nikolay Davydenko
Robin Soderling  vs.  Juan Martin Del Potro

I like a Federer vs. Del Potro final with Federer winning.
