Do you think tennis has lacked genuine showstoppers and quality entertainment value over the last 15 years?

Question

Are you still at all interested in watching tennis events such as the French Open and Wimbledon and do you believe the quality and entertainment value of the sport has diminished over the last 15 years, especially the mens game?

Where are the entertainers like John McEnroe, Borris Bekker, Ivan Lendl, Jimmy Connor and Bjorn Borg?

Answer 1

You´re right. It just seemed to stop when those entertainers left.

Answer 2

no. they changed names, now they are called: federer, nadal, djokovic, ferrer, davidenko ....

Answer 3

Tennis is boring. The money is obscene and the sponsors are stealing form their customers to support a game that is not really a sport at all.

Answer 4

I've never been a tennis lover, but lately I have started to watch women's tennis. Those ladies are gorgeous and there are a few that plays very well. On the male side, I do like Pete Sampras, but his career seems to be over now. I do not like Nadal, he seems to be too full of himself when interviewed.

Answer 5

Those you mentioned are LEGENDS, there will never be another Borg or a Martina. My husband think that Maria Sharapova = genuine showstopper.
