Argentine tennis player, David Nalbandian is quite possibly one of the most underrated players of all time. Apart from possessing one of the best two-handed backhands of all time, he reached a career-high ranking of No.3 and was the runner-up at Wimbledon in 2002. Nalbandian is also the only Argentine to ever reach the semifinals at all 4 grand slams.

He was recently the guest on a talk show in Argentina. Given the friendly ambiance of the show, Nalbandian opened up to the hosts and revealed a funny anecdote that transpired between him, David Ferrer and Rafael Nadal.
