Gustavo 'Guga' Kuerten
Yevgeny Kafelnikov
Head To Head: 7-5
On Clay: 4-1
On Hard: 3-4
In Finals: 0-0
Titles: 20-26
Turned Pro: 1995-1992
These two never contested a final but either of their brutal French Open tussles could have been a final.
Both times Guga was the victor, but Yevgeny squeaked Kuerten on the hard courts 4-3. Both men could not be more different either, which made for a compelling match up.
