  • David Nalbandian's talent was out of this world. At his best, he was one of the toughest opponents for Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and many top players. The Argentine has 8 wins over Federer and 2 vs Nadal. Nalbandian reached his highest rank of #3 in the world in March 2006. He has also won the ATP Masters Finals in 2005. I hope you guys enjoy a little bit of his magic and his best points

    Nalbandian played the most attractive tennis I have ever watched. The statistics shows clearly he was not among the best players of the history. But if it existed a ranking of creativity, skill and beauty in the game, he would be my number one.

    Most elegant tennis I have ever seen. Nalbandian, the lobby king could also receive service as none else. He excelled in volleys at the net, direction changing, not to mention to read the game on demand. Although, he showed to have more fun on rally racing, investing into it while he took tennis as a hobby. Miss his presence on courts.:)

    Nalbandian. Never out of place. Precise timing of shots. Finest control on ball... rolling, flatout, top spin, back spin. He whispers to the ball, and the ball obeys.
