#5 Dusan Lajovic
Dusan Lajovic is the highest-ranked Serbian player after Novak Djokovic. The 29-year-old is known to be a sharp operator on clay, where his movement and variety have repeatedly flummoxed his opponents.
Lajovic has a smooth one-handed backhand that took him all the way to the final of the Monte Carlo Masters earlier this year. He also looks to take charge with his forehand, but needs to work on its consistency - especially while playing on hard courts.
Lajovic can cover a lot of ground with his swift movement and can surprise his opponents with his clever net play. He will be looking to add an exclamation point to his career-best year by going deep in the Kremlin Cup.
