His stomach is gone. Where is the potbelly ? Nalbandian saids staying healthy is the most important part for him. If he stay healthy, he will be top 10 again.

Nalbandian does look fit in that pic that LG posted. Would be nice to see him win out here.

This year's tournament lineup is looking rather strong and interesting.
Many good clay courters there. If they could bring Dolgopolov back it would be one of the most interesting 250 lineups. It will be interesting if Bellucci, the local favorite, will live up to the tournament.

Rooting for Nalby to win this one. It's great that he's fit, hopefully he can give us more memorable matches. Looking forward to Bellucci-Mayer as well.

The last time Nalbandian looked this thin, he ravaged through the tour in late 2007. Not saying this will be the case again, but hey! a guy can dream

------------ meanwhile, today he's up a break on volandri, 5-2 surprisingly to me, volandri seems to be doing better than simon did, and there have already been some very entertaining rallies apparently, the atp website hasnt yet caught on to the fact that nalby's got a new clothing sponser, tho he's still wearing the yonex shoes ...

Oops, Vola comes right back and breaks with some great backhands.
Who said the 1HBH was a weakness??

some very nice backhands on display by both guys, but volandri was able to turn his into a breaker ... then he held on ... nalby serving 1-4 and showing some frustration
vamos nalby!
