Cilic reaches semi finals after Nadal|World News Cilic reaches semi-finals after Nadal In the end he could not run. World number one Rafael Nadal limped from the court beaten in four-and-a-half sets by Marin Cilic. In truth Nadal was beaten well before he went down a break at the start of the fifth set. He had had two injury timeouts and was massaged and crunched but could not loosen up his hip. He disobeyed his body and returned to the court for the fifth set, experimenting with whether he could buy enough points slugging from deep in the court. He couldn't. Once he went a service break down there was no hope of him climbing back into the match and he conceded.
