Editors Note: Ruben wore our 10sBalls patch proudly for years. He is a great guy. A lefty with a great “kicker” of a serve. We caught up with him at Wimbledon where he beat Tommy Haas after working his way thru the qualies at Roehampton. Yes we were there with him as well. We were with his Mom at qualies and his dad at WIMBLEDON.

Ruben is best known in his country for his doubles wins with The Great Xavier Malisse. He is also loved at home as a great Davis Cup record for his homeland. They play the FRENCH in the finals soon. So his match up with Tsonga is like a “test” match.
