Andreas Seppi after defeating Roger Federer at the 2015 Australian Open.

From: 2005 Wimbledon to 2018 Wimbledon.

Win-Loss Record: 54-54.

Best Performance: 4th Round (6 times).

Andreas Seppi made his Grand Slam debut at the 2004 US Open, and defeated 11th seed Rainer Schuttler in his first match. Seppi was unable to qualify for the next 2 slams, losing in the 2nd round of qualifying in both of them. Seppi made his return at the 2005 Wimbledon Championships, and has not missed a slam since. He leapfrogged Tomas Berdych for the 6th spot on this list at the 2018 Wimbledon, where he lost in the 2nd round to eventual finalist Kevin Anderson.

Seppi has had the most success at the Australian Open where he reached the 4th round on 4 different occasions (2013, 2015, 2017, 2018). His most famous moment came at the 2015 Australian Open when he defeated Roger Federer en route to the 4th round. Seppi also reached the 4th round of the 2012 French Open, he led Novak Djokovic (gunning for a calendar slam), by 2 sets to love but Djokovic ultimately prevailed. Seppi also reached the 4th round at the 2013 Wimbledon, and has reached the third round of the US Open on 3 different occasions.

The Italian has a 50% win record at Grand slam tournaments, while he has not enjoyed great success, he is no pushover as well. Seppi has had his share of upsets at the highest level, and would like to build upon it. Modern day athletes are playing late into their career, and Seppi is no different. Seppi is 34, and has shown no signs of slowing down. He has a good 3-4 years left in him, and the longer he plays, the higher he would go on this list.
