Oh my bad thanks for correcting me... LOL.... I was supposed to say who not what.... Who is your favorite tennis player?

Sure. Well for me it depends on the era. I have favorites from all the eras I saw. My earliest favorites were Laver for his utter dominance, and Evonne Goolagong for her grace.

Then I loved Jimmy Conners, before attitude mattered to me, and all I saw was a young David beating the Goliaths. Before long, he WAS Goliath.

Then McEnroe, for his desire, his passion and the brilliance of his volley.

Then Agassi: his groundstrokes were impeccable and charisma undeniable.

I'm not sure I have a favorite now, though I love Nadal's game, and I'd love Dolgopolov to continue to give me more reason to love him!

In this era I favour Federer and Nadal. In the past when Agassi was playing I favoured him. I didn't became a serious watcher of tennis until the late 1990's so missed those earlier players. I could list lots of players I enjoy watching and those I don't bother watching.

I like Petra Kvitova because she's mad hot.

And she's also really good at tennis. :D

I hope it's still good to post in this thread; I just noticed no-one's posted here in mad long...

Gosh - I guess hot is in the eye of the beholder. No disparagement meant to her, but that never occurred to me. And I am willing to admit that I have had a similar thought about other players, so it's not an opposition to such perceptions...

I think she has a very nice form for a tennis player. ;)

And it's not like you know them personally from watching them play, but she seems like such a sweet girl to me. Like she would be shy. So cute.

...

I like some of the men too, in man-brother-love way. I mean, Roger Federer is just so righteous, and all his commercials are so triumphantly awesome. And Rafa is cool too, he's a bull, a raging bull. Man, if I could be like that, then...

Petra Kvitova, hahaha. yeah. :D

And, speaking of the women, I really like Caroline Wozniacki. Partly in a nerdy way, actually, I mean, she's Danish: and her last name is "Wozniacki". Totally win.

And I think Mardy Fish is awesome because he's an AMERICAN!!! C'mon, lads, DAVIS CUP!!!

Damn that Roger Federer, a-hahahahaha!!!

Djokovic is cool too, when he wins he gets that look in his eyes, like he's happy like a fairy or imp is happy when they steal a giant cauldron full of gold coins. Three of them, a-hahahaha.
