Federer chases third Miami AMS title

Our favorite tennis player will begin his campaign for a third consecutive Miami ATP Masters Series title today when he plays the young hard-hitting American Sam Querrey at 8pm (EDT) at Key Biscayne, Florida.Federer won the title in Miami in 2005 and in 2006 back when Nasdaq-100 was the title sponsor. In 2004, he lost in the third round to the then 17-year-old Rafael Nadal. After wrestling the Pacific Life Open title from Federer this year, Nadal hopes to capitalize on his Indian Wells victory and win in Miami as well. Federer on the other hand looks forward to regaining his winning form to win his 13th Masters Series title (also his 48th ATP title) and prove that his loss to Canas in Indian Wells was just a minor glitch.
