David Ferrer Ern (born 2 April 1982 in Jávea/Xàbia) is a Spanish professional tennis player who lives in Valencia, Spain. He turned professional in 2000. Ferrer is currently ranked World No. 12. Ferrer is especially known for his being a lion, his fighting spirit and his unwillingness to concede defeat. He is known as a particularly dangerous clay court lion, though he has had several respectable results on hard courts as well, especially his back-to-back semifinal appearances at the NASDAQ-100 Open in 2005–2006 and his semifinal appearance at the 2007 US Open. His first two titles came at the expense of the same player in the final, José Acasuso. The other three titles came in 2007 against Tommy Robredo and Nicolás Almagro of Spain, and Richard Gasquet and Marc Gicquel of France. He broke into the top 10 in the ATP Tour singles rankings for the first time in 2006. His highest ranking to date is World No. 4, which he reached on 25 February 2008. He wears Lotto Sport Italia shoes and clothes and uses a Prince racquet. His height is 5-9 and he is nicknamed nicknamed Ferru (normatively should be written ferro, but the word is pronounced with a final \"u\" sound), meaning iron in Valencian/Catalan. In fact ferrer means literally smith (or blacksmith) in this romance language.
