Favorite tennis commentator

Yeah it annoyed me. I was a henman fan for his play style, not cos he was English, but course his gives him a higher profile. Felt sorry for him too always being slagged in the media when anyone who knew anything about tennis knew with sampras in the draw henman had next to zero chance of winning Wimbledon. One of my favourite matches was vs moya in 2007, a real old school grass match. But to be fair I do quite like Murray, not for his play style but I think he's quite a good guy and its good for tennis here for him to do well.

As for the lack of players... its pretty much a big culture problem, even in 2011. Tennis is still a upper class sport, with others having little access to good facilities. I've always
played cos my dad played and has always been a tennis fan, and he taught me
When I was about 5. Were also lucky as we have a lot of good public facilities or cheap indoor ones within 5 miles, including grass clay concrete and indoor. If this was the case for every kid we would have more talent for sure.

Yes, Stepanek did.

Stepanek is writing his own tennis autobiography, called "Winning Sexy".

very unexpected to see Stepanek and sexy in the same sentence. but i like the guy..not his tennis! he is just fun and i mostly feel sorry for him somehow. dunno why.

lol I thought his general nickname was Sexy (..ironic of course), but maybe that's just at menstennisforums.

I like 'Winning Sexy'...

but I think Stepanek's book would be more aptly titled simply 'Winning'.
