Style and personality:
A fiery, often controversial player, Paire draws crowds wherever he plays. His game can be as big as his personality when he’s on form, with a double-handed backhand that can deliver sledgehammer blows to his opponents. Frequently deploying drop shots from the forehand and backhand side, Paire is a flamboyant and mercurial opponent, playing high-risk, high-reward shots regardless of the importance of the point. Despite frequent inconsistency on tour, his unpredictability is what defines him and also what makes him so entertaining to watch.
Career:
Paire’s best result in a Grand Slam has been reaching the fourth round, which he has done on four occasions at three different majors. He has won three singles titles, and his career-high singles ranking is World No. 18, first achieved in January 2016. His career has been plagued by injury and some on-court temperamental issues, but his talent remains indisputable.
