I second this. On the plus side, he's just played above 500 ATP-matches, so his mileage shouldn't be that much and he can rely on his serve quite a bit.
Should be able to make it back to top-50 or better, if he regains his fitness to a reasonable degree.
Not a chance of top 50 I'm sorry to say.

Not agree. Definite top 50 if he can stay healthy. but Can he stay healthy ????????
ATP tour seem to be very very tough on the body and if you are fragile, you just can't stay healthy for very long.............

We shall see - for a player with his top level, it's not out of the question imo. Provided he's fairly fit and can train properly of course.

It's nice to see Mardy Fish back on the ATP.
I'm still heavily concerned about his heart condition. I'm hoping he managed to fix that issue.

I'm excited to see Mardy back but not hoping for much. Such a shame Robin Soderling was never able to make it back.
vive le beau jeu !

he's no stranger to comebacks, being one of the lowest-ranked tournament winners: in 2006 he won houston after dropping down to #341 several weeks before (he already reached the top20 in 2003-2004, before reaching the top10 in 2011).
it's probably gonna be more difficult this time... but good luck !

I am thinking he is doing this just to get a farewell at this years USO.
Remember he could not do that last year because he had not taken the drug test ?

He's one of my favorite players although he's a bit of an as*hole. Still remember his tight Cincinnati losses to ARod and Fed.

Good for him. I don't expect much of his return, but in all, nice to see him giving it a try.

I thought he had heart issues. Why does he want to come back to play tennis? Health is more important than playing tennis. I wish him luck though. Maybe he must need the $$. However, He's 33 years old.. What does he have to gain to come back at his advanced age? Perhaps he just enjoys the game and competition. I don't get it but wish him well.
