WORLD RANKING: 34
VERDICT
Few of the big guns relish playing 'The Dominator', whose dogged style wins him few fans but plenty of ranking points. Loves to grind opponents down from the baseline but, as his Wimbledon record shows, that's not always a style of play that succeeds on the SW19 lawns. Only seeded after Mario Ancic's late withdrawal and looks likely to make an early exit.
