17-year-old Rafael Nadal defeats Roger Federer 6-3 6-3 in Miami second round. This is when the Fedal rivalry started. Federer: "I knew Rafa was good, but he surprised me to some degree that he was so consistent, so good on hardcourts already so early. That really showed me he was probably going to become the world no. 1, Grand Slam champion. From then on it went; the rest we know."
