1st Serve %: 54.8

1st Serve Points Won: 78.5

Hold %: 84.6

It may be surprising to find Wawrinka on this list, but anyone who has watched tennis this season can attest to the dominance of the Swiss number two’s serve. It has helped him gain two titles already, losing only to Djokovic in Melbourne. He places it extremely well and his small stature does not keep him from amping up the power on important points. His racket speed generates power than can surprise his opponents.
