16. Younes El Aynaoui

DOB: 12.09.1971
Nationality: Moroccan
World Ranking: 18
Previous French Open results:
2001 :: second round
2000 :: fourth round
1999 :: second round
1998 :: n/a

One of the longest-serving players on the ATP tour, El Aynaoui has seen it all during his long career.

The 31-year-old led this year's Champions Race in January thanks to a victory in Qatar - his third tour title.

El Aynaoui's style is often to soak up the pressure and then strike at a crucial point in the game.

He hasn't sustained that winning start to 2002, but with two of his three tournament wins coming on clay, he is a threat at Roland Garros.
