Armenian tennis-player David Nalbandian (Argentina) continues his
triumphant march at the International Tennis Tournament. He won over
David Ferrer in a battle royal to qualify for the semi-finals of the
Masters Series event in Paris.
The Argentinean was the conqueror of Roger Federer in the last 16 on
Thursday night, and repeated the dose a day later by beating Ferrer
7-6 (7/3) 6-7 (3/7) 6-2 in a high-quality contest.
He is now arguably the player to beat and will now meet Richard Gasquet
in the last four after the Frenchman defeated Britain’s Andy Murray
6-3 0-6 6-4.
Nalbandian won the Madrid Masters a fortnight ago, beating world
number one Federer in the final.
