Another clay-loving Spaniard, although his recent showings at Roland Garros have been disappointing. Only once since he won the title as a 21-year-old in 1998 has Moya been past round four. This year, though, Moya has been in great form, winning titles at Chennai, Acapulco and the Rome Masters. The former world number one has all the tools required to win in Paris, the most impressive of which is his thunderous forehand.
