Marcos Diniz Daniel (born July 4, 1978, in Passo Fundo , Rio Grande do Sul ) is a retired professional tennis player from Brazil who turned professional in 1997. The right-hander reached his highest ATP singles ranking of World No. 56 in September 2009. He is coached by his brother, Márcio.
Marcos Daniel's brother owns an academy for developing young tennis players, called Daniel Tennis Center where Marcos Daniel used to work as a ball catcher. He started playing youth tournaments at age 5. When he was 12, representing this academy, he reached his first final but he did not succeed in winning the title.[ 1]
In August 2009, he reached the semi-finals of the ATP Gstaad tournament. He also reached the semi-finals there in 2006.
He qualified for the 2009 French Open and lost in the first round to Rafael Nadal after giving a strong performance, 5–7, 4–6, 3–6.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
