DOB 01/09/86
Nationality FRA
Pre-Tournament Odds 150/1
Became Pro 2004
Seeding 30
World Ranking 32
Blessed with tremendous athleticism and some extravagant shot-making abilities, Monfils underlined his potential with a run to the semi-finals of the recent French Open.

Yet to make it to the second week in his three visits to Wimbledon, but if he can maintain his form then he could do some damage.
