My dark horse pick this year is American Tim Mayotte, who consistantly reaches the quarter -finals and has made the semis. Mayotte'is playing the best ten- nis' of his life, and Wimbledon is his tournament. Carling Bassett, Helen Kelesi and Mar- tin Laurendeau are the only Canadians at the tournament.
