This will be the 105th edition of the Australian Open, which will feature all of our favourite singles and doubles players. Of course, by favourite we actually mean most good-looking.

Since we’re sure you’ll be watching some of the upcoming matches, we thought we’d share some stats about sixteen very handsome tennis players from the around the world.

Ranked at No. 5 by the Association of Tennis Professionals, Nishikori is the only male Japanese tennis player to ever get into the top ten. So far, he has won eleven singles titles and was even a runner-up in the 2014 US Open, so he is also the first male player to represent an Asian country in a Grand Slam singles final.
