Fabrice Vetea Santoro (French: [fabʁis sɑ̃tɔʁo]; born 9 December 1972) is a French former professional tennis player. Successful in both singles and doubles, he had an unusually long professional career, with many of his accomplishments coming towards the end of his career, and he is popular among spectators and other players alike for his winning demeanor and shot-making abilities; he is also one of a rare breed of player who plays two-handed on both the forehand and backhand sides. Owing to his longevity on the tour and consistent ranking, Santoro holds several ATP records: the most career wins over top ten opponents for a player who never reached the top ten (40). He was the first player to appear in 70 Grand Slam men's singles events, and has the third-most losses in singles play behind Feliciano López and Fernando Verdasco (444). Read more on Wikipedia
