    Always liked Andy not just for his game but for his personality. Brutally honest, funny and very intelligent.

    The '09 final cemented his place at Wimbledon as a People's Champion. Legend and fantastic player

      That volley in the tie break where he put too much on it & the ball going long, was the turning point in that final. He had fed beat until that point.

      He was not a top tier player. He would not have done well against Sampras or Agassi or the previous decade.

    • @FirstPlace97
      @FirstPlace97 6 лет назад +13

      He was the only man outside of federer and Nadal to win a grand slam in a period from 2003 to 2010, excluding the AO that Novak won. He is the last American to win at our U.S. Open, so that makes him a top tier player, as far as I'm concerned.

    • @sperrotta91

  • @sainellore6874
    @sainellore6874 6 лет назад +12

    I was Andy's fan before I became a Federer fan. It pains me immensely even today that Andy came so close to winning Wimbledon three times and yet he was denied by Roger. I feel it was pure bad luck that did him in as opposed to Roger's superiority on those days. I would have celebrated more had Andy won the closest final.

    • @georgemavrides3434

      Indeed, he deserved one ... especially the one in 2009.

  • @den_525
    @den_525 5 лет назад +5

    It's interesting to hear his opinion between Wimbledon and US Open... as a tennis fan for a long time, most people definitely do consider Wimbledon to be THE grand slam... because it's the oldest and most prestigious, the all whites, the "poshness" surrounds the whole tournament, but in reality, it's actually player's LEAST favourite slam, as players don't play on grand the other 11 months of the year! Grass courts are hard to find, there's only Wimbledon and less than a handful of lead up tournaments.
    However, as for the other three grand slams...
    French Open is the hardest to win, clay is a court least amount of players around the world grew up on, therefore not many have mastered the art, but clay is actually one of the most integral part of the tour, but French open gets the least attention.
    US Open and Australian open are very similar, both are alot more "casual" both are equally popular.

  • @breakaway2x

    So lucky Roger got to make a career on beating this guy. Nadal had to make his career on beating Roger and Novak. Much harder task.

    • @mrog5481
      @mrog5481 Год назад +2

      On the contrary, Nadal hardly had to play Roger in his true prime (and when he did, Roger owned him). Most of the times Andy had to face Roger were when Roger was in his prime. Look at Roger in 2007 - neither Nadal nor Djokovic would have done any better against Roger than Andy did during that year (except Nadal at the French).

  • @moaningpheromones

    D in Wimbledon. What's hard about the name Wimbledon? Andy says it perfectly. Why does the man asking the question say Wimbleton? A lot of Americans do that - so weird.
