When it comes to clay courting prowess, Nadal may be the only player better than Almagro at the moment.

Nicolas Almagro is the leader in the betting market for ATP Gstaad, a clay court event, as Paddy Power have him priced at +275 (11/4).  Almagro was one the best players at the French Open this year as he played Rafael Nadal to three close sets in the quarterfinal of that Slam, including 2 tiebreakers.  Besides that effort Almagro has a recent clay court title from ATP Bastad where he beat French Open finalist Robin Soderling in the championship match.

Almagro actually has 3 consecutive clay court victories over Soderling, a fact that suggests that it is Almagro, and not Soderling, who is the second best clay courter in the world at the moment, behind Rafael Nadal.  If Almagro had been on the opposite side of the draw to Nadal at the 2010 French Open it could very easily have been an all-Spanish final at Roland Garros this year.

At +275 (11/4) to win Gstaad outright, Almagro appears to be underrated.  His true odds might be more like +125 against a field that isn't exactly loaded and backing Almagro is therefore the play to make.
