| VERDICT |
 |
| The big-serving Russian will always be considered a threat here. He ended 2004 well, winning in St Petersburg and taking his ranking to a career high inside the top 20. However, he has slipped back this term. Will be hoping the slick surface provides a boost in fortunes, although a first-round defeat in Halle does not bode particularly well. |
