| VERDICT |
 |
| Arrives after an excellent clay campaign which saw him reach the quarter-finals of a Grand Slam for the first time in Paris. However, he will need to much-talked about courts of the All England Club to be playing slower than ever if he is to make any kind of impact here. His record on grass suggests he is a seed likely to fall early on. |
