He is the comeback kid in 2016. Accomplishing so many remarkable feats in just five to six months, he climbed the ladder of the ATP Ranking. From ranked. No.1045 in February, he currently ranked No.38. Here's a look at his amazing journey before the year closes:

February: His return from wrist injuries which plagued most of his career for the past three years was felt in Delray Beach. He lost to Sam Querry 7-5, 7-5. This time, Del Potro is confident that he can do better in coming tournaments.

July: Then he made his presence felt strongly in Wimbledon, defeating Stan Wawrinka 3-6,6-3,7-6 (3), 6-3. The Swiss backhand expert has all praises for Del Potro's impressive forehand after their first encounter in four years.

August: Perhaps the most important sports spectacle this year is the Olympics. And in Rio, the Argentine announced through his performance that he is still a threat to everyone. After defeating tennis beasts like Nadal and Djokovic in early rounds, he soon clinched the silver medal after surrendering to Murray. The game lasted for more than four hours with Murray leading- 7-5, 4-6, 6-2, 7-5. Though he lost, he had learned a lot from the British whose playing motto according to a report from Jobs & Hire is just to never give up.

September: He had a magical moment in the US Open. It was stopped by Stan Wawrinka in the quarterfinals. Even though he lost, his performance is still impressive. His defeat provided all the drama that night as the crowd chanted his name after seeing him crying.

November-December: And just few days ago, Del Potro staged what might be his best performance this year. After defeating Murray in the semis of Davis Cup, he then soon found himself trailing two sets behind Marin Cilic in the finals. Pushed against the wall, he somehow closed the gap to two sets all after finally finishing the match-6-7(4), 2-6,7-5, 6-4, 6-3. It lasted for almost five hours. It was the first Davis Cup trophy for Argentina and Del Potro ones again became a hero.
