Tennis career

In May 2009, he achieved a career-high singles ranking of World No. 76.

At the 2006 French Open, Capdeville had a shoving incident with Mario Ančić, at the end of his second round match. The two players had to be separated by the chair umpire.{{cite news|title=Polémico final tuvo eliminación de Capdeville en Roland Garros|trans-title=Capdeville's defeat in Roland Garros had a controversial ending|url=http://www.lanacion.cl/noticias/deportes/polemico-final-tuvo-eliminacion-de-capdeville-en-roland-garros/2006-05-31/171510.html|access-date=17 November 2015|work=La Nación|date=31 May 2006|location=Paris|language=es}} Ančić and Capdeville were each fined US$3,000 for the incident.{{cite news|title=Capdeville y Ancic, sancionados después del incidente que protagonizaron|trans-title=Capdeville and Ancic, sanctioned after the incident they staged|url=http://masdeporte.as.com/masdeporte/2006/06/01/polideportivo/1149112808_850215.html|access-date=17 November 2015|work=As|date=1 June 2006|location=Paris|language=es}}
