There was some real drama brewing in the US Open-2010 play in New
York, where Argentinean-Armenian tennis player David Nalbandian took
his sweet time knocking off South African qualifier Rik De Voest,
7-6 (7-4), 3-6, 6-4, 6-7 (6-8), 6-4.
According to SBNation Nalbandian’s precise net play finally put the
match to rest just short of the four-hour mark.
The 31-seed will play France’s Florent Serra in the third round who
easily won over German Florian Mayer at 7/5, 6/2. 6/0.
According to local Armenian sports news website David and Floran have
never had the chance to play together in official competitions.
