Sergi Bruguera

The heaviest topspin of the early nineties belonged to Sergi Bruguera, a looping forehand drilled into him by his father and coach Lluis on the Barcelona clay; Jim Courier later compared its kick to Nadal's. Courier felt it first hand in the 1993 Roland Garros final, where Bruguera, then 22, outlasted the two-time defending champion in five sets over four hours. Twelve months on he kept the crown in an all-Spanish final, unpicking Alberto Berasategui and his freakish Hawaiian grip in four sets.

He reached No. 3 in August 1994 and made four Paris semi-finals in five years, but torn ankle ligaments in December 1995 cut the peak short. The comebacks counted: Olympic silver at Atlanta 1996, a loss to Andre Agassi, then a third Paris final in 1997, taken by an unseeded Gustavo Kuerten. Both of his 2 majors came on the same Paris clay, the anchor of 15 career titles. As Spain's Davis Cup captain from 2018 he lifted the 2019 trophy, this time from the bench.
