He ends up being one of very few players with winning H2H against Bull. Good for him.
I'd say he's the only player whose winning H2H over Rafa really says anything. Hrbaty (3-1) played his matches against Rafa in 2003-05, so never saw Rafa in his prime. Corretja (2-0) only played Rafa in 2003, and everyone else is only 1-0 - mainly guys from long ago, except for Chris Guccione who beat Rafa in 2007, and of course Dustin Brown and Nick Kyrgios this year. It will be interesting to see how Kyrgios and Rafa match up again, whether Kyrgios will be the young buck that has Rafa's number or, more like, Rafa evokes the vengeful wrath of his Spaniard ancestors and utterly destroys him.
As for Davydenko, he's of a caliber of player that I personally find fascinating - among the best players never to win a Slam. Among diehard baseball fans (which I am) there's a slang term, "Hall of the Very Good," to denote those players who had very good careers, but shy of the Hall of Fame. Davydenko--along with players like Ferrer, Tsonga, Berdych, and retired players like Alex Corretja, Thomas Enqvist, Marcelo Rios, etc--fit the bill.
