...who is currently active, but never won a Grand Slam? And why do you like him?

Will stick to veterans, and not be provincial about local newcomers.
Probably Tomas Berdych, a bit of attitude, a huge serve and a very good player -but can't seem to get to the next level for whatever reason.
Also like Richard Gasquet, and THAT traditional one-handed backhand. Unfortunately when the pressure is on, he just folds like a pack of cards.

I like Tomas Berdych, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (stylish player; good to see him do well in Toronto after struggling a little for most of the last year, even if he beat Djokovic), and Alexandr Dogopolov (interesting playing style; have liked him ever since the 2011 Australian Open). I'm also curious what the younger top players will do (3 categories of those guys: the guys now knocking on the door like Dimitrov and Raonic, though I think Raonic's game is a little boring; Kyrgios and to a lesser extent Thiem, both of whom could be top 10 players in a couple years; and guys like A. Zverev and Coric, who are still very young but starting to make waves and could be top players if they continue along their current paths).

I always like Tsonga's style. I don't like Berdych because he doesn't seem like a nice person and somewhat cocky.

Tsonga just beat Djokovic, Murray, and Dimitrov in a row. Did anyone EVER done that, beating Djokovic, Murray, and another top 10 player in a row?
