Roger Federer believes he can end Rafael Nadal's dominance at the French Open - despite his defeat to the Spaniard in the final of the Masters Series event in Hamburg.

The world number one suffered his eighth defeat to Nadal in nine clay-court matches on Sunday, going down 7-5 6-7 (3/7) 6-3.

"I think I have a lot of options in my game, and it is up to me to use them," said Federer, 26. "I am again in top physical shape. I will have two days of rest and arrive in Paris on Wednesday to attack the final preparation days at Roland Garros. If all that goes well, I will be ready."
