Argentina's injury-plagued David Nalbandian snapped a 19-month title drought by winning yesterday's Washington Classic final and likes his chances of adding a deep US Open run to his comeback success.
Nalbandian won his first ATP title since January 2009 at Sydney by beating eighth seed Marcos Baghdatis of Cyprus 6-2, 7-6 (7/4) for the 281,500-dollar top prize from the 1.4 million-dollar tournament, a US Open tuneup event.
"If I continue playing this good, I have a chance to go very, very far," Nalbandian said of the year's last Grand Slam event that starts August 30.
