Top 5 ace servers on the ATP tour this year

4. Nicolas Almagro (589 aces in 59 matches)

‘Nico’, as he is popularly known, would not be amongst the foremost to come to people’s minds when they think of ace servers. But, the man from Murcia, Spain, who is well known for a delightful single-handed backhand has also made it a habit of sending down aces with alarming regularity.

He averages 9.98 aces per game, lower than Querrey, but has served more in total owing to more matches played.

Almagro loves the clay courts and believes that if he wasn’t a tennis player, he probably would have turned to football.

He is currently ranked 13 in the world.
