Thanjk you.

I think the competition is a lot better these days. To repeat Laver's feat is a lot more difficult today.
Personally I think, Federer has the potential to be the Best ever, but he's far from confirming it.
Sampras holds that spot for me - For Now anyway
It's such as tricky one, but having grown up watching both I can honestly say I've NEVER been as impressed and blown away as I have watching Federer. I think several times over the last year, including (obviously) vs Roddick he's literally been unplayable
Quote of the year :
"With monkey me, dogface dishwasher bitch and chimp the ****ing champ you. We are turning into a raving party here arent we"
I'm unlucky enough to have seen only clips from the Roddick destruction, but as I said in the Aus Open thread, he's the greatest sportsman on the planet today. He plays incessant jaw-dropping shots and he's a ****in joy to watch. Complete and utter control, perpetual motion, elegance and an absolute master of his trade.
If you've lost your faith in love and music the end won't be long
He won the final in three straight sets. He didn't drop a set in the seven games.
Just believe and you never know what will happen.
According to Benitez it's important not simply to go out to win but to go out prepared to win, which means players have to put in the same level of work on a daily basis. Anything else is unacceptable.
Gonzalez is in his best form ever and he didn't have a chance.
Federer have now been in seven straight Grand Slam finals and won six of them.

Seen the match. He hasn't broken sweat, apart for a game in the 3rd set. Never seen a player so fluid and so easy on a tennis court. Gonzalez was full tilt and he didn't even make an impression.
The first man to win a Grand Slam without a dropping a single set since Ken Rosewall in 1972. Incredible. 10 Grand Slams now, only four behind Sampras and still only 25.
Thanks very much for being ‘This Mornings’ Farmer’

Yeah! Although he's only 25, he's a bloody legend, isn't he?! I mean, that's the best tennis player I've ever seen! He's even better than that guy... Em... what's his name... Amelie Mauresmo? Or something like that...

Björn Borg won the French Open 1978 without dropping a set
