The ATP 500 tournaments in Rio and Doha are in full swing, while the top seeds Zverev and Alcaraz have very different fates. The latter is already a four-time Grand Slam champion at a young age, while the former reached the Grand Slam final again this year, but still can't break the curse of "nothing more than three", and is only one Wimbledon runner-up away from winning the "full full Asia".

When you think of men's singles players who haven't won a Grand Slam title, who comes to mind first?

1️⃣ Zverev

✅ The highest ranked second

✅ Two-time year-end finals champion and seven Masters champions

✅ Olympic singles gold medal

✅ Three-time Grand Slam runner-up

In terms of individual accolades, Zverev is the undisputed leader of this list. He has already finished runners-up in three Grand Slams (Wimbledon only) and won the Masters title among the post-95 generation. In the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, he defeated Deyo in the semifinals and finally won the gold medal, which is enviable.

Back in 2017, Zverev defeated Djokovic at the Rome Masters to win the championship and became famous all over the world. In the 2018 year-end finals, he won the championship with Federer and Deyo, and showed himself on the master stage of Huashan Sword. But in terms of Grand Slam, he is not as good as Mr. Mei after 95. One of the three Grand Slam runners-up was the 2020 US Open, when he was reversed by his opponent in a two-set lead during a conversation with his friend Thiem, and eventually lost a fateful match.

2️⃣ Rios

✅ The highest ranking is the first

✅ Five Masters titles

✅ A Grand Slam runner-up

Before Zverev, the Chilean lone wolf was more talked about, and the only player who had ever won the ball but never won a Grand Slam title. Not long ago, he coached Shang Juncheng, which also made his memories clear in the hearts of Chinese fans.

3️⃣ Nalbandian

✅ The highest ranking is third

✅ A year-end finals winner

✅ Two Masters titles

✅ A Grand Slam runner-up

✅ The only Big Three players in the same event

This player is arguably familiar to fans of the giant. In addition to winning the championship trophy as a substitute in the year-end finals, another highlight of his work was winning the Madrid Masters with a triumph in a row. Although he failed to win a Grand Slam title, this miracle was enough for him to boast about for a lifetime.

4️⃣ Ferrer

✅ The highest ranking is third

✅ A Masters champion

✅ A Grand Slam runner-up

✅734 wins to 27 Tour titles

The Spanish stable man has won the Paris Masters once, finished runner-up at the French Open once, and is even more famous for his astounding 27 tour titles during his long journey with the Big Three.

5️⃣ Oak

✅ The highest ranking is third

✅ One runner-up in the year-end finals and one runner-up in a Grand Slam

✅ All four finals of the Grand Slam are unlocked

✅666 wins to 35 Tour titles

The Dutchman was also close to the pinnacle of honour at one point, with all four finals of Grand Slams proving his all-round ability, and his 35 tour titles clearly proved that he has the quality to be on par with compatriot Krajisek.(Source: Tennis Home Author: Luo Cheng Qiye)
