Nalbandian to Play Wimbledon

[West Coast Ace]

During Tennis Channel's Queens Club telecast this AM, they said Nalbandian was going to play Wimbledon.

From his website:

My (limited) translation:
"After two months away from the tour, David will return for the third Slam of the season....I'm very happy to be returning..."

Great news but after so long with no match-play he's not going to get far, though I really hope he does he was one of my favorite players.

Great news,I don't think he'll go far either but it will be a pleasure to watch him play on TV.

Who do you think is going to show him on TV. I guess if you find one of those internet feeds that goes to every court here is maybe.

Great news. Anytime Nalbandian is in the draw he could be a factor. Would love to see him reach the 2nd week.

YESSS!!!

And to those who are saying he won't go far, in the matches he's managed to play this year he's looked very sharp for someone with so little match play. Too bad grass is his worst surface

He doesn't have the fitness to survive 3/5 set matches. Hell, he didn't have enough stamina to survive a 3 setter against Nadal on hard court.

That's true. Hopefully his conditioning is back up to scratch by USO, could see him making a fairly good run there if the seeds don't pick up their form. But you never know with Nalby

Maybe he is only turning up for the strawberries and cream

cool that is awesome news

Bad news!!!

Nalbandian is out of Wimbledon in order to preserve his body well for the Davis Cup in July. I hope this isn't true.
