Tennis fans will look back on Roger Federer's 2006 season as arguably the greatest in the Swiss' legendary career. A staggering 92-win campaign was kicked off with an impressive 16-0 run.

(1) Hubert Hurkacz is Poland's surging #NextGenATP hope
Projected to rise to a career-high in the Top 200 of the ATP Rankings on Monday, Hurkacz, who turned 21 last month, will be the youngest Polish player to do so since Jerzy Janowicz in 2011. A semi-finalist at this week's ATP Challenger Tour event in Shenzhen, China, he also appeared in his second final last week in Zhuhai.

There is no doubting that both Juan Martin del Potro and Milos Raonic have had excellent careers thus far. The Argentine has reached a career-best No. 4 in the ATP Rankings and won 21 tour-level titles while the Canadian has climbed to No. 3 and claimed eight trophies. Del Potro triumphed at the 2009 US Open at age 20, while Raonic made the Wimbledon final two years ago.

Juan Martin del Potro has done a bit of everything the past two weeks in Indian Wells. He's dominated in straight sets, imposing his lethal game on his opponents. The 2013 finalist has also had to fight, coming back from a set down in his fourth-round match against fellow Argentine Leonardo Mayer.

In a way, it is hard to believe that Roger Federer continues to create new records for himself in a sport in which he has re-written plenty of them. But in Saturday’s BNP Paribas Open semi-finals, the Swiss will have a chance to do so once again.

Milos Raonic might not feel as if he's playing 100 per cent like his old self, but, early into his comeback season, the Canadian has already returned to familiar territory on the ATP World Tour.
