(19) JONAS BJORKMAN

PRE-TOURNAMENT ODDS: 250/1
NATIONALITY: SWE
BIRTH DATE: 23/03/72
BECAME PRO: 1991
WORLD RANKING: 31
VERDICT
At 35 and in the twilight of his career, Bjorkman has returned to the world's top 30 on the back of a strong run at Roland Garros, despite a poor season on clay. A doubles specialist with 50 titles to his name, the Swede has also won six singles titles, three of them on the grass of Nottingham. Went all the way to the semis last year - his best at SW19 - before losing to Roger Federer. Definitely one to avoid.
