DOB: 18.2.1974

Since winning the title back in 1996, Kafelnikov has struggled at Roland Garros and his poor form on the dirt this year suggests that pattern is unlikely to change.
But the Russian remains a graceful player and a potential threat at any of the Grand Slams.
He boasts a strong serve-and-volley game and a whipping double-handed backhand.
Used to be coached by Tim Henman's current guide, Larry Stefanki.
