Second-seeded Spaniard Rafael Nadal was forced to draw upon all his experience to beat Spanish compatriot Nicolas Almagro 3-6, 7-6(2), 7-5 Wednesday at the BNP Paribas Masters in Paris. Nadal saved five match points at 5-6 in the second set and recovered from a 3-5 deficit in the deciding set, to clinch victory in three hours and 15 minutes.
Nadal's stunning victory - and Roger Federer's shock opening-round loss to Frenchman Julien Benneteau - has suddenly thrust the Spaniard back into contention to claim the 2009 ATP World Tour Champion title. Following Wednesday's results, Nadal trailed Federer by 1,215 points, but he would cut that margin to a mere 305 points should he go on this week to win his 16th ATP World Tour Masters 1000 title.
