Whether
Igor Andreev will turn up at Eastbourne for the 2010 AEGON
International will depend on his ankle injury, which he sustained at
the Madrid Masters in May.
Yet to crack the world's top 10, despite having the ability to adjust his game to all surfaces and got as high as no18 in November 2008.
Reached the fourth round at 2009 Wimbledon after a disappointing Eastbourne debut, so can serve and volley when required although is primarily is a baseliner with a lethal forehand.
Reached nine finals, captured three titles on the ATP Tour.
Realistic chances of winning // Returning from injury means that he will not be sharp, so most unlikely to get past the second round.
