Top seed Roger Federer made the final four in Rotterdam following his straight-sets victory over Jarkko Nieminen Friday evening. The Swiss improved his series record to 13-0 against the Finn, after winning their quarterfinal clash, 7-5, 7-6(2).
A well-timed backhand gave Federer a 6-5 advantage in the first set. After missing several break chances in set two, the world No. 3 led 4-1 in the tiebreak. He collected six straight points to reach match points at 6-1. A final forehand error from Nieminen sealed the contest in 91 minutes.
