NIKLAS KULTI
I don't know much about Niklas Kulti but all I know is that he is more of a doubles player rather than a singles player. He and Jonas Bjorkman are always teamed up in Davis Cup action and on other tournaments whenever they're in the same one.
1998 was a successful year for Kulti when he won all his doubles matches in the Davis Cup. He's more of a doubles especialist as he finished the doubles ranking at 38.
News on Kulti courtesy of Stephanie of Melbourne, Australia: Kulti used to be world's number 1 junior player and has won titles in Adelaide in 1991 and 1993. He also won a title in Halle when he beat Kafelnikov in 1996.
