David Ferrer

Ferrer sits alongside Australian Roy Emerson as our most successful ever champion. The Spaniard has won four titles in the City of Sails, his first in 2007, before completely dominating the ASB Tennis Arena, going unbeaten in 2011, 2012 and 2013 to capture the titles. In addition to his four titles, Ferrer has made three semi-final and three quarter-final appearances in his 12 previous visits. The 35-year old has won twenty-seven titles in his seventeen years on tour, reached a career high ranking of number three in the world and won the ATP Tour Finals in 2012. He sits 7th on the all-time leading prizemoney list.
