A note on Mikhail Youzhny. Looking at his record, I was surprised to see that he has only won a single ATP 500 (or higher) tournament - out of his 9 total titles (8 being ATP 250) - against Ivan Ljubicic in Rotterdam in 2007. He is 1-5 in ATP 500 finals overall, having lost Federer, Murray, Djokovic, Tsonga and Soderling (tough crowd!).
For much of his career, Youzhny has been what I would call a "third tier player" - someone who spends most of his career in the top 40, and much of it in the top 20 - similar to a Juan Monaco or Gilles Simon, but below a Tommy Robredo (in his prime), Tsonga or Ferrer, and just a bit below a Richard Gasquet (who is like a "tier 2.5" player). He finished one year, 2010, at #10, three other years in the top 20, and seven other years ending between #24 and #43. He's made it to two Slam SFs and four QFs, although interestingly enough has never made it past the QF of an ATP 1000. He is one of the few remaining players of "Generation Federer" that are still playing near their peak level, and has been very consistent for over a decade. A player to appreciate.
