The cold and "crazy" wind messed with Rafael Nadal, who played it too safe. Roger Federer handled the conditions better, acing Nadal on a match point delayed by rain drops.
Federer won 6-3, 6-4 in the semifinals of the BNP Paribas Open on Saturday night in a match that got started nearly three hours late because of rain. Wind whipped the court and temperatures plunged 20 degrees from Friday's high in the 80s.
