Whos the best tennis player ever?

Question

Whos the best tennis player ever?

Answer 1

Roger federer and pete sampras. Nadal probabley will be in a couple of years becoz he's onli young

Answer 2

Roger Federer，I think.He‘s the best one.

Answer 3

Maybe Rod Laver, as experts consider him. He's the only tennis player who has won the all four Grand Slam ; in 1962 and, after turning professionnal, in 1969.

But at that time, the US Open and Australian Open were on grass.

For me, the best is Ivan Lendl. His forehand, his mental, his personnality, his incredible efforts to improving his game, his kind of beauty...

He won 8 Grand Slam, but never Wimbledon.

Answer 4

1st. Rodger Federer

2nd. Rafael Nadal

Answer 5

bjorn borg........

becoz he played till 26 and made 12 grandslames.

Answer 6

That's really a tough question, actually there were many....let's see, depends on what grabs your gonads.....hmmmmmm...

Arthur Ashe - graceful and elegant

John McEnroe - bratty and fierce

Bjorn Borg - strong and precise

Peta Sampras - reliable and athletic

Andre Agassi - controlled and savvy

Roger Federer - knowledgeable and graceful

Rafael Nadal - thinker and strong

Out of the above, right now at this moment I would have to pic Bjorn Borg, although NEVER winning the US Open.  As his records are being over taken by the new generation of tennis, he will always be one of the First Big Names in Tennis, although extremely close with his Undeniable record is second is Pete Sampras, both of they're tennis history speaks volumes.   Federer has closed a gap though is knocking on Pete's back right now.

BTW women I would have to say "Martina Navratolova".
