Jormakka was unconscious for four minutes and was taken to a hospital with a
concussion. The International Ice Hockey Federation says the disciplinary
panel ruled that Shipachyov performed an illegal hit with his right shoulder to
Jormakkas head, following through with his upper arm. Shipachyov will miss
Mondays game against the United States and the following games against
Kazakhstan on Wednesday and Latvia on Saturday. Shipachyov was not penalized for
the hit during the game that Russia won 4-2.

Trying to beat Rafael Nadal at the French Open is, without a doubt, the toughest
task in tennis. Indeed, must be among the greatest challenges in all of sports.
The pressure he applies, from set to set, game to game, point to point, shot to
shot. That bullwhip of a high-bouncing, topspin lefty forehand. Those
quick-reflex returns that help him break an opponents serve -- and his will.
Doing what he does so well on the red clay of Roland Garros, a surface and site
he dominates so completely, the No. 1-seeded Nadal wore down No. 2 Novak
Djokovic 3-6, 7-5, 6-2, 6-4 in a muggy final Sunday to win his ninth French Open
championship and fifth in a row, both records. For me, Nadal said, playing here
in Roland Garros is just unforgettable, forever. It is also his 14th Grand Slam
title overall, tying the 28-year-old Spaniard with Pete Sampras for the second
most by a man, behind only Roger Federers 17. That includes Nadals two trophies
apiece at Wimbledon and the U.S. Open, along with one from the Australian Open,
proving he can beat the best on grass and hard courts, too. But its on the clay
of Paris where Nadal reigns supreme: He has won 66 of 67 career French Open
matches. Since the only loss, against Robin Soderling in the fourth round in
2009, Nadal has won 35 consecutive matches at Roland Garros. No other man has
won more than seven titles at any of tennis four majors. Its not impossible, but
its very, very difficult to stay with Rafa in this court, throughout the whole
match, on the highest level of performance, said Djokovic, who was broken in the
final game of each set, including with an anticlimactic double-fault on match
point. Nadal ensured that he, not Djokovic, will be ranked No. 1 on Monday. In
the process, Nadal once again prevented six-time major champion Djokovic from
completing a career Grand Slam. He deserves to win this tournament, Nadal said.
I am sure he will do it in the future. Djokovic had won their four most recent
matches, including on clay in the best-of-three-set final at Rome last month.
Beating Nadal in best-of-five is a whole other matter. Nadal also topped
Djokovic in the 2012 final, and the 2013 semifinals..
Ken Griffey
Jersey. In all, Nadal leads Djokovic 6-0 at the French Open, 9-3 at major
tournaments, and 23-19 in total. No other pair of men has played each other as
often. The defeat in Rome was one of three this season on clay for Nadal,
raising questions about whether hed be unbeatable at Roland Garros this time.
There also was the matter of his troublesome back, which flared up during a loss
to Stan Wawrinka in the Australian Open final and slowed his serve at times
during the French Open. For 3 1/2 hours Sunday, when the sky was crystal clear
and the temperature touched 80 degrees (27 Celsius), Djokovic gave everything he
had, even spitting up on court. I played at the maximum of my power, my
strength, and my capability, Djokovic said, but Rafa was the best player. Using
his backhand to great effect against Nadals forehand early, Djokovic grabbed the
first set, and got to 5-all in the second. I felt, Nadal said, the match was
more in his hands at the beginning. Knowing that overcoming a two-set hole might
be too much even for him, Nadal raised his level, taking 20 of 26 points to
claim that set and a 3-0 lead in the third. Without that second set, I dont know
if I have this trophy with me now, Nadal would say later. When a down-the-line
forehand winner ended the second set, Nadal leaped and shook both fists, his
first sign of real emotion. The momentum went (to) his side, Djokovic said. I
started playing quite bad and didnt move as well. Struggled a little bit
physically throughout that third set. That was apparent. His cheeks were
flushed. He put his hand on his heaving chest. He wobbled and nearly fell over
while sitting on his changeover bench. Still, after trailing 4-2 in the fourth,
Djokovic made one last stand. As skilled a retriever as his formidable foe --
Djokovic won 10 of the first 15 points that lasted at least 10 strokes -- he
came up with a desperation defensive lob that landed right near the baseline,
drawing a netted overhead from Nadal to earn a break point. Soon, it was 4-all.
But Nadal steadied himself to hold to 5-4, then broke one last time. Soon
enough, he was clutching the French Open trophy, his trophy.
