Outside of the Top 10 Empty Outside of the Top 10

Just wondered which results of players you look out for who are not in the top 10, i've always been a fan of Nalby even though he goes missing for half the year before coming back again. Earlier in his career I thought he would be Federer's main rival along with Hewitt, just hasn't put it together for a sustained time for various reasons. Another one is Janowicz, for a tall gangly player he has really good reflexes and acceleration, it is just a matter of time before he will grab big wins and move up to the top 10 imo. Raonic gets a lot of hype (some of it deserved) but I don't see how Raonic will become a better player than Jerzy from what I have seen. Special mention to Hewitt for obvious reasons, even though I don't really like his style.

Gulbis and Janowicz interest me, as does Dimitrov.

Rather oddly, I also keep an eye out for Kevin Anderson. Not really sure why!

And I enjoy watching Stepanek too.

Raonic doesn't interest me in the slightest.

Robson and Watson for sure.

I like Belluci on the men's side. Possibly because he's Brazilian and my fiancé is from Rio so we like watching him. He is great on the front foot, and very talented... But I get the impression that he enjoys the partying too much to trouble the top 10.

Shame as he has weapons.

Nalbandian without a doubt, few things can beat watching that guy when in full flow, will never forget his back to back masters wins in Madrid and Paris a few years back, effortless power and precision.

I like watching Wawrinka too, such an amazing backhand and again a treat to watch when in the zone. Like Cilic too, pretty good all round attacking game

Struggling to think of many others outside top 10 but also admire Llodra and Benneteau, under rated players I feel. Also like James Blake, aggressive style of the game and comes across a real gentelman

Seppi, Simon, Goffin, Nishikori, and Raonic. Mainly because they all seem like genuinely decent people who're trying to maximise the gifts that they have. Sounds silly, but I tend to root for them at tournaments for that reason Smile

I like watching Fognini, Wawrinka, Dimitrov and (when he's not in the top 10) Gasquet.

IMO Raonic looks like the only one who will be in the Top 10 by the year-end.

I have to throw my hat in the ring for Jerzy, Tomic, Harrison and I like Youzhny and Baggy a lot as well. Can enjoy watching any of these 5 players outside the top ten.
