Nadal Sets New Milestone; 2007 Entry List Out Next Week

World No. 2 Rafael Nadal, who will be making his second appearance at the Artois Championships this June, extended his clay court winning streak to a record 67 matches after defeating Roger Federer to claim his third consecutive Masters Series Monte-Carlo last week.

Nadal, who reached the quarterfinals on his debut at The Queen's Club last year, became the first player since Ilie Nastase in 1973 to win a hat-trick of titles in Monte-Carlo.

Meanwhile, the full entry list to the 2007 Artois Championships will be released during the week of April 30. Deputy Tournament Director Chris Kermode said: "We have stars like Rafael Nadal and Andy Murray returning once again to The Queen's Club as well as emerging talents such as Novak Djokovic coming for the first time, so we are looking forward to seeing the full list of entrants next week."
