The recently Roland Garros crowned Spaniard Rafael Nadal was shiocked Friday today at the ATP Halle quartersfinals when he was ousted from the run by the eighth seed Kohlschreiber in straight sets 6-3, 6-4.
Nadal who had chosen ATP Halle as his pre-Wimbledon practice ground was not only shocked, but stunned and demoralized by succumbing to Kohlschreiber.
In the other quarterfianl, second seed Roger Federer overcame Milos Raonic 6-7 (4-7) 6-4 7-6 (7-3). Federer who is five time winner of Halle has his eyes set for the sixth time win too this year.
Nadal is now heading home to Mallorca to rest ahead of Wimbledon, which starts on 25 June.
Kohlschreiber will play third seed Tomas Berdych or fellow German Tommy Haas in the last eight.
