According to The Star, Nadal might not be coming - it will depend on Spain’s Davis Cup fortunes. Spain are scheduled to meet the United States in the Davis Cup semi-final in Madrid on Sept 21. The other semi-final pits Russia against Argentina. The Davis Cup final will be held from Nov 21-23. And that’s where the problem starts.
But the organisers have a ready-made replacement should Nadal help Spain to the final. In that case, American James Blake will compete in the “Showdown of Champions” against Federer.
But Federer has been in miserable form, having been knocked out of the Roger's Cup (ironically) recently while Nadal is on course to earn his World Number 1 tag real soon.
