Nikolay Vladimirovich Davydenko (Template:Lang-uk; Template:Lang-ru; born June 2, 1981 in Severodonetsk, Ukrainian SSR, Soviet Union) is a Russian[1] tennis player. Davydenko's best result in a Grand Slam tournament has been reaching the semi-finals, which he has done on four occasions - twice each at the French Open and the U.S. Open. He was runner-up at the 2008 Tennis Masters Cup and has won 3 Masters Series shields.

Personal life

Davydenko was born on the belief that Russia would afford more opportunities to become a professional tennis player.

Years later, Davydenko explained his peripatetic youth, "I stayed 4 years in Russia. Eduard worked as a tennis coach for kids and we practiced together. He pushed me pretty hard. At 15 we left for Germany. A Russian who lived there convinced Eduard it would be better for me and help me to learn more about my game with better coaches. In Europe I could play more tournaments and earn more money than in Russia."[citation needed]

Davydenko was granted Russian citizenship in 1999 at the age of 18, and has represented Russia ever since. In 2007 he applied for Austrian citizenship (so as to obtain a dual citizenship), and has also previously applied for German citizenship.[2]

Tennis fans have nicknamed Davydenko "Kolya", the Russian nickname for Nikolay. He has also been called "Iron Man" because he plays in more tournaments per year than any other player, just like fellow Russian and former World No. 1 Yevgeny Kafelnikov. Another nickname is "The Machine" due to his aggressive, consistent style of play.

Davydenko's favourite players growing up were Ivan Lendl and Yannick Noah. During his spare time he enjoys cycling, fishing, soccer, and hockey. He is also a Guns N' Roses fan. He speaks Russian, German and English.

Before the Davis Cup in 2006, Davydenko married his girlfriend Irina, who was his traveling companion for three years. He currently resides in Volgograd, Russia.

Tennis career

Early career

Davydenko started playing at athe age of seven with his brother, Eduard. During his junior tennis years, he moved to Salmtal, Germany with Eduard to further improve and participate in more tournaments.

Davydenko turned professional in 1999. In 2000, he played mainly on the Futures Tour, where he captured one title and reached three finals. He made his ATP debut at Amsterdam, reaching the semi-final. Later in August, he won his first Challenger title in Mönchengladbach.

2001–2003

Davydenko made his Grand Slam debut in 2001 at the Australian Open, where he made it to the second round, before losing to former World No. 1, Patrick Rafter in four sets. This performance captured the public eye of his talent and ability. Later in February, he injured his lower back in Dallas and subsequently was out for six weeks. After the injury, he came back to win two Challenger titles in Ulm and Istanbul. He finished the season with a quarter-final in Basel.

In 2002, Davydenko continued to play on both the ATP Tour and Challenger events. It was a steady year with quarter-final appearances in Båstad and Vienna. During the year he captured his fourth Challenger title in Szczecin.

Davydenko made huge strides on the ATP Tour in 2003. He opened the season with his first ATP title in Adelaide defeating Kristof Vliegen in the final. A few months later, he captured his second tour title in Estoril on clay beating Agustín Calleri. His season was backed up with solid performances on clay in Barcelona and St. Pölten, reaching the quarter final and final respectively. After a solid year, Davydenko finished in the top 50 for the first time in his career.

2004

His progress continued in 2004, capturing two more titles for the second consecutive year. After a slow start to season, a quarter final in the Monte Carlo Masters kicked off a 10-2 matches run. A week later he won in Munich for his third title. Backed up his win by reaching the semi-final in Stuttgart losing to Guillermo Cañas. In October, he captured his first home soil victory in Moscow by winning both the singles and doubles (partnering Igor Andreev). He finished the season in the top 30 for the first time.

2005

In 2005, he began the season by reaching the quarter-final for the first time in a Grand Slam at the Australian Open. During the clay season, captured his fifth career title in St. Pölten beating home favourite, Jürgen Melzer. Continued his solid form by reaching the semi-finals of Hamburg Masters and his first Grand Slam at the French Open. There was a controversy after the French Open because he lost to Mariano Puerta in 5 close sets 3–6 7–5 6–2 4–6 4–6, who was later caught and banned for doping. He reached the top 10 for the first time after the French Open. Closed out the year by reaching the quarter-finals at the Cincinnati Masters and the Paris Masters. After a great season, allowed him to qualified Tennis Masters Cup in Shanghai for the first time and reached the semi-finals losing to David Nalbandian. Finished the year as the No. 1 Russian and world No. 5.

2006–2007

Davydenko at the 2006 French Open.

After his rapid rise into the top 5 in 2005, Davydenko continued to stay in the top 5 for 2006. Repeated his quarter-final appearance at the Australian Open, losing to Roger Federer in 4 tight sets, 4–6 6–3 6–7(7) 6–7(5). He had another solid clay court season, reaching the final in Estoril and quarter final at the Hamburg Masters. Defended his title in Pöertschach and reached the quarter-final at the French Open for the second year. His form continued after an early loss at Wimbledon with wins in Sopot and his first American soil win in New Haven. After the win on the hardcourt season, he reached his second Grand Slam semi-final at the U.S. Open, losing to Roger Federer. Finished the season with a win in Moscow and his first career TMS title in Paris. After getting married, Davydenko helped Russia win the Davis Cup against Argentina. He reached a career high ranking of No. 3 which he finished on for the year.

Nikolay Davydenko at the 2007 Hamburg Masters.

2007 started with another quarter-final appearance at the Australian Open for the third consecutive year. He was slow to find his form on clay court season; but found his form at the Rome Masters, losing in the semi-final to the "King of Clay", Rafael Nadal in an enthralling match 6–7, 7–6, 4–6. His good form continued, and he reached semi-final for the second time at the French Open, losing to Roger Federer again 5–7, 6–7, 6–7. At Wimbledon, he surprised the tennis world by reaching the 4th round on his least preferred surface. Moving to the hard court season in the US, Davydenko had strong showings in Canada Masters and Cincinnati Masters, reaching the quarter-final and semi-final respectively. Davydenko then reached the semi-final of the U.S. Open for the second consecutive year before losing to Roger Federer 5–7, 1–6, 5–7. He won his eleventh career title in Moscow, defeating Paul-Henri Mathieu. Davydenko ended the year ranked No. 4 and in the top 5 for the third straight year.

2008

Davydenko started 2008 at the Australian Open where he was seeded fourth. He won his first three matches in straight sets, but in the fourth round he lost to countryman Mikhail Youzhny 7–6, 6–3, 6–1. In Dubai, he reached the semi-finals, losing to Feliciano López in three sets. He then went on to win his biggest career title to date at the Miami Masters. On the route to the win he defeated Andy Roddick in the semi-final and Rafael Nadal 6-4, 6-2 in the final to win his second ATP Masters Series title. His win over Roddick in the semi-final was his first victory in six matches while his win over Nadal was his first in three matches.

Davydenko began the European clay court season with a final appearance in his next tournament, the Estoril Open in Portugal, where he met world number 1, Roger Federer in the final. In the second set of the final, while trailing Federer, 7–6(5), 2–1, Davydenko retired hurt with a left leg injury. He then reached the semi-finals of the Monte Carlo Masters. He won his thirteenth career title in Pöertschach defeating Juan Mónaco 6–2, 2–6, 6–2. After a disappointing French Open, Davydenko went on to win another title, this time in Warsaw, defeating Tommy Robredo 6–3, 6–3 in the final. He did not win back-to-back matches until the US Open. At the Open, he lost in the fourth round to qualifier Gilles Müller 4-6, 6-4, 3-6, 6-7(10), breaking his streak of two straight semi-finals.

Davydenko reached semi-final at the Paris Masters, losing to David Nalbandian 1-6, 7-5, 4-6. Davydenko qualified for the Tennis Masters Cup for the fourth consecutive year. He beat Juan Martin del Potro and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the round robin matches to progress to the semi-final, where he defeated Andy Murray 7–5, 6–2 to reach the final, where he met Novak Djokovic, losing 1-6, 5-7. Davydenko finished the year ranked No. 5 in world and in the top 5 for the fourth consecutive year.

2009

Davydenko started the year at an exhibition in Abu Dhabi, which featured 6 of the worlds best players. Davydenko defeated Andy Roddick 6-4, 6-4 before being defeated by top seed Rafael Nadal 6-2, 6-3.

His first tour tournament was in Chennai, India, where he was the top seed. He defeated Daniel Koellerer in straight sets but was forced to withdraw before his second round match against Lukas Dlouhy because of a left heel injury. This injury subsequently forced Davydenko to withdraw from the Australian Open. In Rotterdam, where he was defeated in the second round by Julien Benneteau. The injury he sustained in Chennai earlier in the year returned forcing Davydenko to withdraw from the 1000 Series tournaments in Indian Wells and Miami. This caused his ranking to fall from No. 5 to No. 9 by April 6.

Davydenko returned to the tour after a two month absence in Monte Carlo. He defeated Ivo Karlovic and David Nalbandian before being eliminated by Andy Murray in the quarterfinals 7-6(1), 6-4. In Barcelona, he posted back-to-back three set wins over Feliciano Lopez and Radek Stepanek. He was ousted by World No. 1 Rafael Nadal in the semifinals 6-3, 6-2. Despite his run in Barcelona, his ranking slipped out of the top 10 for the first time since May 23, 2005.

Davydenko was upset in the early rounds in Rome. Davydenko reached his second semifinal of the year in Estoril, by eliminating Juan Carlos Ferrero in the second round and Mardy Fish in the quarterfinals, but was stopped by American James Blake 6-7(3), 7-6(2), 6-3. In his last tournament before the French Open, Nikolay advanced to the third round in Madrid before he was forced to withdraw before his match with Andy Roddick due to a leg injury. He was able to play at Roland Garros, and convincingly advanced to the quarterfinals. He dropped a set apiece to Diego Junqueira and Stanislas Wawrinka and beat the No. 8 seed Fernando Verdasco 6-2, 6-2, 6-4 en route. He fell to eventual runner-up Robin Söderling 6-1, 6-3, 6-1.

On grass, Davydenko advanced to the third round at Wimbledon before falling to Tomas Berdych 6-2, 6-3, 6-2 for the first time. After Wimbledon he competed in the 2009 MercedesCup as a second seed falling to Fabio Fognini in the Quarterfinals. He then won 2 straight titles in 2009 International German Open defeating Paul-Henri Mathieu 6-4, 6-2 and in 2009 ATP Studena Croatia Open Umag defeating Juan Carlos Ferrero 6-3 6-0, dropping only one set in 10 matches. Davydenko then lost to Andy Murray in the quarterfinals of the Rogers Cup in Montreal 6-2, 6-4, a loss which snapped a 12 match winning streak. He then lost in the third round of the 2009 Cincinnati Masters to Gilles Simon 7-6(6), 4-6, 4-6. Davydenko lost in the quarterfinals 2009 Pilot Pen Tennis to Sam Querrey. At the US Open, he reached the fourth round before retiring against Robin Söderling with a left thigh injury.

Nikolay Davydenko at 2009 US Open

He won his 3rd title of the year in the 2009 Malaysian Open after beating Gaël Monfils 6-3 6-3 in the quarters, Robin Söderling 1-6 7-6(1) 6-2 in the semis and eventually Fernando Verdasco 6-4 7-5 in the final. Following his triumph in Malyasia, he competed in the 2009 China Open losing in the Quarterfinals to eventual runner-up Marin Cilic 6-4 6-4. At the Shanghai Masters 1000 event he defeated 3 seeded players en route to the final, 10th seed Fernando Gonzalez, 13th seed Radek Stepanek, and 2nd seed Novak Djokovic. He upset Djokovic in the semifinal 4-6 6-4 7-6(1). In the final, he played Rafael Nadal and again won in an upset 7-6(3) 6-3

Playing style

Davydenko employs an offensive baseline game, using hard, penetrating groundstrokes on both wings. His groundstrokes are technically efficient on both forehand and backhand. He hits the ball extremely early which generates immense power and depth resembling former World No. 1 Andre Agassi. Davydenko's best shot is his backhand which he can hit down the line, cross court or with extreme angles. He is known for his running shots which he takes early and often turn into winners. Davydenko´s style makes him a good player on any surface, especially hardcourts and clay.

Davydenko's main weaknesses are his volleys, serve, and inability to close matches. His volleys are not as consistent as his groundstrokes, though he does have one of the best swinging volleys on tour. Many tennis analysts have also criticised Davydenko for lacking variation in his game due to the fact he mainly plays from the baseline with his consistent groundstrokes. In recent years, he has varied his game by employing the slice and moving into the net more often. His serve is consistent, but it also lacks power. Davydenko's difficulty closing matches has lost numerous important matches after holding the lead. This was evident during the 2006 Tennis Masters Cup against James Blake and Rafael Nadal where he won the first sets and had leads in the second but lost. Against Roger Federer he blew a lead at the 2006 Australian Open and the 2007 French Open. In the Australian Open, he had three set points in the second to go up 2 sets to 1, but lost the set and eventually the match.

Equipment

Davydenko is sponsored by Prince Sports and Airness. He brings his Prince racquet holdall and is currently using a Prince Ozone racquet, Asics shoes and Airness clothing.

Controversies

Davydenko is known within tennis for often being less than complimentary about tournament venues. One of these examples came at the Sydney event in Australia when he claimed in a press conference "this is a small event that nobody cares about".

Later in the year he then criticised London during Wimbledon. Faced with questions alluding to his slightly boring personality he launched an attack on London claiming it was a "boring place". There were suggestions that Davydenko would be refused a Visa to enter the UK to play the 2009 event but he eventually turned up and was defeated by Tomas Berdych in the 3rd round.

The ATP launched a match-fixing investigation of Davydenko's match against Martín Vassallo Argüello in Sopot of 2 August 2007, after several large bets were placed at an online British gambling company, Betfair, in Argüello's favor after Davydenko had won the first set 6–2. Davydenko withdrew from the match during the third set with a foot injury.[3] Although Davydenko had suffered three first-round defeats in his last three tournaments, was injured in an earlier-round match, and showed signs of injury in the second set,[4] it did not make sense to Betfair that such a heavy betting volume would go in Argüello's direction at that point of time in the match. Per its agreement with the ATP, Betfair notified the Tour.[5][6][7] It has since been revealed that nine people based in Russia had bet US$1.5m on Davydenko losing while two unknown people would gain US$6m from the loss.[8][9] A total of $7 m was wagered on the match, ten times the usual amount.[10] Due to these irregularities, all bets were voided. On September 11, 2008 Davydenko, along with Arguello, was cleared of any involvement in match-fixing. At over a year in the process, the inquiry was the longest ever held into match-fixing in tennis.[10]

Further controversy had also surrounded Davydenko after one of his matches at St. Petersburg Open in October 2007. During his 1–6, 7–5, 6–1 defeat by Marin Cilic he was given a code violation by umpire Jean-Philippe Dercq for not giving his best effort. He was later fined $2000 (£987) by the governing body of men's Tennis, the ATP, but the fine was rescinded upon appeal.[11] The following week, he lost 6–2, 6–2 to Marcos Baghdatis at the Paris Masters. This generated some controversy, as Davydenko was cautioned by the umpire to do his best during the match.[12]
