PARIS, Nov 2: Argentine David Nalbandian and France’s Jo-Wilfried Tsonga will battle it out for the last Masters Cup spot in the final of the Paris Masters after winning their respective semi-finals on Saturday.
Nalbandian battled for a 6-1, 5-7, 6-4 victory over Russian world No 6 Nikolay Davydenko, while local favourite Tsonga advanced with a 6-4, 6-3 defeat of James Blake. The result ended the American’s hopes of qualifying for the season-ending tournament.
