The 2019 Wimbledon championships start on Monday and all of the big stars are back in town.
Roger Federer will bid for a ninth title at the All England Club and defending champion Novak Djokovic is looking for a fifth, although home favourite Andy Murray, the 2013 and 2016 winner, will not feature in the singles following hip surgery.
Here, PA picks out 10 contenders and hopefuls in the men's draw.
Roger Federer
The South African cannot be ignored, owing to his run to last year's final. He disposed of Federer in the quarter-finals and then beat John Isner in a marathon semi-final where the deciding set ended 26-24 in his favour. His massive serve and powerful groundstrokes make him a threat against anyone at SW19, as a victory over world number one Djokovic in 2016 testifies.
Stefanos Tsitsipas
A player of eye-catching ability, Shapovalov's undoubted potential has yet to be realised on the biggest stage, having failed to make it into the second week in any of his last six grand slams. The 20-year-old bowed out in the second round of Wimbledon last year, but his junior title there in 2016 means grass is a surface he enjoys playing on and any of the big names will be keen to avoid him in the draw.
Felix Auger-Aliassime
Still a baby of the game, at 18 the Canadian is the youngest member of the top 100 and he is only heading one way. His early-season results have catapulted him up the rankings, having made three tour finals and enjoyed deep runs at Indian Wells and Miami. He reached the quarter-finals of the junior event at Wimbledon in 2016 and has the athleticism to cause anyone trouble.
Karen Khachanov
The Russian proved his potential when he beat Djokovic to claim the Paris Masters last autumn in what remains his biggest career win. With a monster forehand and pinpoint serving, Khachanov will be one of the mainstays at the top of the game for the next decade or so. He will be keen to build on his run to the last eight in Paris last month, which is his best grand-slam performance to date.
