I've read this kind of topic in women's tennis message board (wtaworld.com) and I think it's quite interesting. So I've posted this thread to share your opinions about this. Among the male players, who do you think has the best personality on the court?And pls. tell us your reason to choose him/them. Thanks

MARAT SAFIN: You have to be a gentleman. I don't know how to say. But if you see the ball is good, so it's good. I don't know. I can't do like -- if I see the ball is good, say, "Out." I don't care if I lose the next point. You have to be, I don't know, friendly on the court.

PARADORN SRICHAPHAN: “When people come up to me a lot, asking for autographs, sometimes I feel like — oh, again, again. But what can I do? I smile to show them I’m happy to do it, to make them feel good, because they make me feel good too.”

ANDY RODDICK :"Here [Davis Cup], I'm playing for a whole team and a whole country, it goes a lot deeper"

JMG: Success is simple. When the day is over I have to feel that I gave my all and tried all options to be my best for that day. After that, winning or losing is irrelevant. It always feels better to win, but to lose not trying is inexcusable. There is no failure as long as you give your all because there is always going to be another chance as long as you learn from each match."

Well Roger really grew up. And is now really calm on court (exept for the Gstaad final where he once again showed too much emotions for my likings)
.. and he's also a fair sportsman.

Out of all the players I've seen off court (walking around the grounds, signing autographs), Goran Ivanisevic was the nicest of them all. But this is judging from these couple of seconds that you hand them the pen, piece of paper/notebook, say "hi" and get everything back.

Roddick: shows his fire, intensity, and passion on court. very nice, takes the time to sign stuff ans take pics with his fans. actually talks to them, isn't mute and just signs stuff. very fun to watch

Well, everyone keeps saying Federer, 'cause he's so calm.

But I find him more, goofy and gawky. I don't know the word to exactly describe him. He seems a bit nerdy or something. He gets very, goofy with his emotions. He's funny. He just has this gawky charm to him or something. Anyway, I don't know the word to describe him, but I like him a lot for being so unreserved to how he's reeeeaallyyyy feeling at the time

Anyway, I didn't vote for anyone though. I'd have to go with Rios... he's intimidating, he's rude, he tells it like it is, he's funny, he's left-handed...

I like Marat too! Anyone who talks about sex so freely with a touch of humour is cool. He's just a big cheeseball--the friend of your older brother that you have a crush on

Agassi, he seems intelligent in interviews and always says good things about everyone. And he always like to acknowledge the crowd at his matches.
Paradorn too coz he seems very nice and respectful.

Thanks for sharing your opinion. And glad to know you added Ball under your signature. :hearts:

:hearts:

Actually I have a lot of Ball's pics and I know we have so many chances to see his pics but I don't think many poster see young Ball's pic. That is the reason why I've been posting the above pic.

Sorry if you don't like. :sad:
