King David refines his Game in Basel
David Nalbandian, the man from Córdoba, continues refining his game with the view to the final of the Davis Cup, to be played between Argentina and Spain, in Mar del Plata, between November 21st and 23rd. Yesterday he started with great authority in the fourth round of the Basel ATP when defeating the Spaniard Albert Montañés 6-4 and 6-2 in only 57 minutes. The man from Unquillo, who is not defending points in this tournament so he could get his seventh position in the world ranking back, will face the winner of the duel between the Belgian Kristof Vliegen and the German Philipp Petzschner. The “King” feels very comfortable in Basel: he won this tournament in 2002 and played in finals in 2003 and 2004.
