David Nalbandian

Paris - Holder David Nalbandian reached his second straight final at the Paris Masters on Saturday, edging closer to a qualifying spot in the ATP season-ending event in China which begins in eight days.

The Argentine spent just over two hours in claiming a battle of champions as he stopped 2006 winner Davydenko at the Bercy arena.

Nalbandian, who beat Rafael Nadal for the title a year ago, will face off on Sunday against the winner from fellow Shanghai Masters Cup contender James Blake and France's Gael Monfils, also in the chase.
