Rafael Nadal vs. Stanislas Wawrinka at 9 a.m. EST/2 p.m. GMT
Nadal needs just one more win to lock up the No. 1 ranking for the end of the year. Chances are, he is going to get it. He has never lost to Wawrinka.
Nadal has defeated the Swiss all 11 times they have met, which includes three meetings this year.
Wawrinka can at least take some confidence from the fact that he looked good in his victory over Berdych. Against the hard-serving Czech, Wawrinka gave up 16 aces, but he battled and took control of the match to earn his first World Tour Finals win.
Of course, Nadal displayed even better form.
The world No. 1 only hit 54 percent of his first serves, but he won 81 percent of those points. He also earned seven break points in two sets and converted on six of them.
It would be a shock if Wawrinka was able to slow down Nadal in his amazing year.
David Ferrer vs. Tomas Berdych at 3 p.m. EST/8 p.m. GMT
Less than a week ago, Ferrer took down Berdych 4-6, 7-5, 6-3 in the quarterfinals of the BNP Paribas Masters in Paris. The result was not surprising. Ferrer has dominated this matchup.
The Spaniard has won three straight against Berdych and seven of the last eight.
However, the last time Berdych beat Ferrer, it was at this tournament in 2011.
If the Czech is going to author another victory over Ferrer, he is going to have to improve his serve. Berdych only put 52 percent of his first serves in play and suffered eight double faults in that match.
If Berdych can find more success with his serve, he stands an excellent chance in this match.
While losing to countryman Nadal is nothing new for Ferrer, he was not sharp in his loss. Ferrer lost six of seven break points and was never able to take control of the match.
Still, Ferrer has been an amazingly consistent player. I expect him to bounce back and send the struggling Berdych to another defeat.
