EVGUENI KOROLEV

Date of birth: 14th February 1988
Residence: Moscow

Let me make some prediction - this 17 y.o. guy will be in top20 in 2-3 years :)
This year Jenya won 3 futures - 2 on claycourts and 1 on indoor hard.
Also he was in 1/4 in Freudenstadt and tomorrow will play with Sluiter in 1/4 in Kolding.
This year record is 52-25.
Now he is No. 253 in the world and No. 8 in Russia.

:woohoo: lots of good luck! But Karlovic isn't so good on clay, so Evgeny has a really good shot at this! Davai! :cool:

If this season smb meets Korolev please ask him to give some contact information (e-mail, tel. if possible). We're going to make web-site, so we would like Jenya know about it and give us some info. Of course it will be great if he join this site.
Thanks in advance, friends :)
