That has got to be the ugliest trophy that Nalbandian won. What is it?
Say it isn’t so…that Rafa’s injuries and his fatigue will end his tennis career’s success too soon. I so don’t want that to be. Rafa has noble manners and is so grounded. And watching him play when he is successful is such a treat.
Here is an interview of Rafa after his second place finish at the Paris Masters, November 4, 2007:
Nadal: "Nalbandian is in a sweet moment" Spanish tennis player Rafael Nadal showed sadness after his defeat by David Nalbandian in the final of the Masters Series Paris-Bercy and emphasised that the Argentine is enjoying a sweet moment and is very difficult to beat.
Nadal who wasted the opportunity of gaining his 7th title of the season and his third Master Series stated that the moment of 4-4 in the first set was the key "I started thinking about Madrid, when he beat me easily, and I got tense" stated Rafa.
"Now, I want to congratulate him for his great moment and because he has had a great end to the season" said Nadal, who continued "Nalbandian has won the two last most important tournaments, beating the No 1 twice, and Djokovic".
Lastly, the Mallorquin player said he would be sad going to the Masters Cup of Shanghai, being held in the Chinese City from the 11th to the 18th of November, that brings together the 8 best players in the world, although at the same time would go there with "confidence" after his "good tournament" in Paris.

Here it is in Spanish:
Nadal: "Nalbandián está en un momento dulce" El tenista español Rafael Nadal se mostró triste tras su derrota en la final del Masters Series de París-Bercy ante David Nalbandián y destacó que el argentino se encuentra en un momento dulce y que es muy difícil ganarle.
Nadal, que desperdició la oportunidad de sumar su séptimo título de la temporada y su tercer Masters Series, el décimo de su palmarés, argumentó que el momento de 4-4 en el primer set fue clave. "He vuelto a pensar en Madrid, cuando me ganó fácil, y me he puesto tenso", sentenció el manacorí. "Ahora quiero felicitarle por su gran momento y porque ha hecho un gran final de temporada", dijo Nadal, que recordó que "Nalbandián ha ganado los dos últimos torneos más importantes, ganando dos veces al número uno, y a Djokovic, que venía jugando mejor".
Por último, el tenista mallorquín reconoció que irá triste a la Copa Masters de Shanghai, que se celebra en la ciudad china del 11 al 18 de noviembre, y que reúne a los ocho mejores del mundo, aunque añadió que también acudirá con "garantías" después de su "buen torneo" en París.

Regarding Rafa's interview with Alex Corretja as he left the court: Alex asked him if he thought that David was unbeatable at the moment and Rafa's reply was "he is not unbeatable, but it is complicated" he also added that he hoped that at the start of 2008 that David's level will have dropped...

The journalist asked if Rafa thinks the match is a "disaster" like in Madrid. Rafa said they're different. He played better this time (the first set) but Nalbandian just played too good and it reminded Rafa of his defeat in Madrid, which affected his mental confidence.
