Now with Djokovic and Murray in the race too, Nadal seems right on course for his 9th time title win.
It is very likely that Nadal may meet Murray in the semis - if that happens, this would be their 19th encounter. Nadal leads their head-to-head series 13-5, including a victories over the Scot in the 2009 and 2011 Monte-Carlo semi-finals.
