Viktor Galovic
Figured he deserved a thread, interesting story and has some potential.
From the '90 generation (still quite young at 22), he is croatian-italian (his family is from Nova Gradiska, and moved to Milan where he was raised) and, if I'm not mistaken, trains with Golubev's team headed by their coach Massimo Puci. From what i've seen and read, he's got a very aggressive style of play well suited to fast courts + a very powerful serve. Also good height at 1.92 and physically strong.
With small steps forward and realistic goals, he could keep climbing up the rankings with not much problems throughout the year if he stays healthy. He's got a big game and both mentally and physically should be 'fresher', to say it in a way, than the other players from his gen. considering he started to take tennis seriously later, finished high school and essentially skipped juniors.
best of luck to Viktor, hoping for a great 2013.
