This season has seen Moya continue his impressive resurgence from a career-threatening back injury. Last year, the powerful Spaniard won titles in Buenos Aires, Barcelona and Umag, reached finals in Miami and Vienna, and led Spain to the final of the Davis Cup.
He began 2004 by winning the title in Chennai and reaching the final in Sydney before an ankle injury forced him out of the Australian Open.
But he bounced back on clay, reaching the final in Buenos Aires and winning the title in Acapulco.
Victory at the Rome Masters confirmed his status as a favourite to lift the French Open trophy for a second time.
The highlight of the 27-year-old's career remains his Paris triumph in 1998.
He sat at the top of the world rankings for two weeks the following year before two years of back problems followed.
Moya re-established himself as a major force in the game in 2002, winning four ATP titles and returning to the world's top 10.
