Wearing a sleeveless shirt and his cap backward, the 30-year-old Moya hardly looked like an old-timer. But he became the oldest man to reach the final eight at the French Open since Andre Agassi in 2003.

Moya has won two of his previous five matches against Nadal.

"It's going to be a beautiful match to play," Moya said, "and very tough for both of us."

Once ranked No. 1, Moya is playing in the tournament for the 12th year in a row.

"Now I'm the oldest guy in the field," he said. "I still remember when I was the youngest guy in the draw, and now I became the oldest. Time passed so fast. ...

"When you're younger, maybe you don't value things as I do now. I enjoy more now."

Bjorkman, the oldest man in the 128-player draw, overcame deficits of two sets to none in the first two rounds. But this time he was the one squandering leads.

The unseeded Swede was ahead 5-2 in the opening set but lost the next four games. He broke serve for 6-all and led 5-3 in the tiebreaker before Moya swept the final four points, the last with a net cord winner.

Bjorkman began to show signs of wear after losing the second set, when he needed a shoulder massage from a trainer.

"You know, I'm 35," Bjorkman said. "My shoulder just got more tired than it normally does. ... This is a great day. I obviously surprised myself to make the fourth round."

He lost serve in the final game, pushing a tired backhand into the net on match point.
