Unlike most Spanish players, who almost always prefer clay courts due to their popularity in their home country, Feliciano López is an exceptional grass-court player, with three quarter-final runs at Wimbledon (his best Grand Slam showing), as well as four grass-court titles at the Eastbourne International in 2013 and 2014, and the Queen’s Club Championships in 2017 and 2019.
This is owing, in part, to his more conventional playing style, which resembles that of grass-court giants Pete Sampras and Roger Federer more than fellow Spaniards Rafael Nadal and Tommy Robredo. This conventional armament includes a powerful serve and a desire to come into contact with the net.
