    Stockholm - Federer fights into semis, Soderling upset World No. 2 Roger Federer rallied from a set and a break down to make the final four at the If Stockholm Open on Friday. The Swiss is joined in the semifinals by Florian Mayer, who ousted hometown hope Robin Soderling.

    (1) Roger Federer def. (5/WC) Staniaslas Wawrinka 2-6, 6-3, 6-2

    Top seed Roger Federer overcame a poor start to his quarterfinal-round clash with compatriot Stanislas Wawrinka Friday evening. The 29-year-old trailed 2-6, 0-2 before fighting his way through to a three-set victory. After splitting the first two sets, Federer broke the Wawrinka serve and 2-2 and 4-2 in the third. A missed service return at 5-2 gave the world No. 2 the win in one hour and 48 minutes.

    Federer is scheduled to take on veteran Ivan Ljubicic for a place in the final. The fourth seed rallied to defeated qualifier Ivan Dodig in the quarterfinal, 4-6, 6-2, 6-4.

    Florian Mayer def. (2) Robin Soderling 7-6(8), 6-1

    World No. 47 Florian Mayer is through to the final four, following his upset of second seed Robin Soderling. The 27-year-old German held 10 of 10 service games through one hour and 22 minutes of play. After a close opening set, the Swede failed to recover with only 22% of his second-serve points won.

    Mayer will take on Jarkko Nieminen in the semifinals. The Finn crushed wildcard James Blake in the quarterfinal, 6-0, 6-2.
