 LONDON (AP) - French Open champion Rafael Nadal was knocked out of the Queen's Club grass-court championships Friday, losing 7-5, 7-6 (0) to 106th-ranked Nicolas Mahut of France. Second-seeded Andy Roddick advanced to the semifinals after defeating Marin Cilic 6-4, 7-6 (5).
Nadal, looking sluggish throughout the match, was broken in the last game of the first set and then failed to win a single point in the tiebreaker.
"It was tough," the Spaniard said. "I didn't really play very well. But anyway, I am happy with my tournament."
