Like him.   He's funny lookin but seems to do exceptionally well with women.  Beat Fed on clay.  A bit of a gamer but not in a malicious sense.  I absolutely love the way he looks for ways to come forward, change tempo, find angles, the Mecir type thing.  Wish we could see him more.  I think he did a credible ...

She gets respect for her talent, her work ethic, and her charm.  I like the way she interviews generally, when she's winning.  Oh yeah and tons of respect for all the singles and doubles titles. She loses respect for not showing up for the Fed Cup Final this year.  Excuses lead to less respect.  Just say, ''Not enough ...

This sort of prognostication about the Djoker happens every year about this time.  He plays well indoor at the end of the season and everyone is ready to crown him the next Roger Fed.  I knew I would run into this BS when Novak won in Basl and then steals the Paris indoor against the formidable Monfils. Have people forgotten how he has ...

SALIENT and sympathetic, actually empathetic I believe is the wright word.  Newc has been there and shows great understanding!  Thanks again TT!

Dman makes many salient points.  When two players walk out onto the court I expect them both to give their utmost.  Andre generated TONS of interest for tennis in America after the tennis boom was over.  His personality rubbed many people the wrong way and the nail that stuck out got hammered down.  Andre was generally ...

He must be really happy with his agent.

Red,  I do not know why you would say Agassi is a vindictive guy?  His most basic person as we know it is a tennis player who is supposed to gut it out.  Andre won EVERY major ever what would he have to be vindictive about and what were examples of that.  He an Pete just played an exhibition and both expressed high regard for ...

My guess is that Ivan Lendl would find be able to agree with much of that.  I think Pete Sampras would agree with that, he made it quite clear that he often felt beleagured by the time pressures that the press and the tour put on him to do promotion when he felt that his priority should be to play the best tennis he could. I am usually ...

Red,  Your story about Vince getting bageled by Donald Young and talking about not having a coach who had racquets ready..........  Seriously I have absolutely no sympathy for Vince if that was actually the case.  He has played long enough to know how to PREPARE. Gilbert makes it clear in his book winning ugly how important ...

Nice job Melzer!    Donald Young just won a challenger and he is still almost in last place??????????????????????????????
