MONTREAL: Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal return to tennis after long absences today at the Montreal Masters with top seed Federer playing just three weeks after the birth of his twin daughters.
The Swiss is happily on a roll after winning the French Open for the first time and Wimbledon for the sixth.Nadal's story is a polar opposite as the Spaniard has been forced to rest his tendinitis-plagued knees for nearly two months after being forced out before Wimbledon due to the injury and being deposed as French Open champion.
Neither man can predict the outcome at the first major event since Wimbledon ended five weeks ago, when Federer moved deeper into the record books with his 15th Grand Slam title, earned at the expense of Andy Roddick.
Nadal went through what looked to some is an uninspiring training session after arriving in Canada following weeks at home on the island of Mallorca with his practise time extremely limited.
