| VERDICT |
 |
| 'Super Mario' seems to be everyone's dark horse for glory this year after his semi-final showing in 2004. He has the serve-volley game to compete with the best on grass, but mentally the jury is still out on the big Croat. If he brings his 'A-Game', he will be a major threat. And it looks as if that could be the case - he won the final warm-up event in Holland. |
