Juan Carlos Ferrero

They called him the Mosquito for the pace and the slight build, and no one covered clay quicker. Juan Carlos Ferrero reached the semi-finals or better at Roland Garros four years running from 2000, and after losing the 2002 final to Albert Costa he came back twelve months later to settle it, beating surprise finalist Martin Verkerk 6-1, 6-3, 6-2 for his 1 major. The streak carried onto hard courts: a run to the 2003 US Open final, lost to Andy Roddick, lifted him past Andre Agassi to No. 1 that September.

Roddick took the top spot back after eight weeks, and 2004 broke the peak: chickenpox in March, then a practice fall that damaged his ribs and right wrist. He played on to 2012, closing with 16 career titles, then built a second act at his academy in Villena, coaching Carlos Alcaraz from 2019 to six Grand Slam titles and the ranking he once held himself, before the pair split in December 2025.
