Fernando Verdasco has appeared on billboards for Calvin Klein underwear and posed nude for Cosmopolitan magazine.

But the Spanish playboy is not just a contender for the man with the best list of girlfriends in tennis.

He has dated tennis girls Gisela Dulko and Ana Ivanovic and is currently going out with Jarah Mariano – the Victoria’s Secret model who appeared in the title sequence of the James Bond film Skyfall.

Andy Murray’s buffed opponent in tomorrow’s Wimbledon quarter-final is also quite a player.

“Verdasco is a very, very good tennis player,” insisted the world No 2. “He’s playing very well this week. He’s extremely dangerous when he’s on his game.”

But given the list of off-court activities, it is amazing the 29-year-old finds the energy to get to the court, let alone win any matches.

Verdasco also has a collection of sports cars and is best friends with Feliciano Lopez – the red-hot Spaniard dubbed “Deliciano” by Judy Murray to the embarrassment of her son.

The former top 10 player is used to mixing with the rich and famous as his family own a trendy restaurant in Madrid frequented by some of Spain’s top footballers.

And he got off his own kit for Cosmo in July 2008 to raise men’s cancer awareness.
