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.
