Juan Carlos Ferrero (el mosquito)

Former number 1, Ferrero announces his retirement after Valencia Open 2012, big thanks Juanca, great payer, humble and disciplined guy.
Ferrero was the "hero" of the first Davis Cup Spain won in Seville against Hewitt, he also won Roland Garros and some Masters 1000.

So I guess he always paid all his bills time. :D
To win is to achieve success. To compete and lose and try again is greatness

Funny I watched the USO final 2003 again and thought like "Ferrero might retire this season as well."

Ahh ok.
I watched a bit of Ferrer and Almagro on Eurosport. Seemed quite good. Querrey did better than I expected.

I do think Isner is the future of American men's tennis, he plays well on all surfaces, super serve, super FH, decent BH and he moves well despite his height, he has a lot to improve but he's young.....

I agree, but he's like 27, isn't he?
Not many years on tour though.

Jack Sock is pretty good. I think he'll be better than Harrison.

Both of the Harrisons are too defensive, though, IMO.
They play a bit like the recent Roddick - serve pretty big, but go into grinding mode, instead of stepping into the court, and using their pretty good FHs to dictate points.
