In an article in Tennis Week in 2007, the tennis historian Raymond Lee statistically analyzed the all-time best players. ROD LAVER topped his list ahead of Tilden and Borg (tied), Roger Federer, Gonzales, Rosewall, Budge, Ivan Lendl, Connors, Sampras, McEnroe, and Kramer. for starters, please look up Rod Laver on wikipedia, specially the section 'Place among the all-time great tennis players'
Why people are so much obsessed with Sania? After all her initial successes, she fell into the rap of money and fame as any other sports person do in India. It is difficult for her to come up. I hate Indian sports persons because here champions are made by chance, not by choice. Often they fail by blaming something or other like Anju George and Rathore in Beijing 2008, to cover up their failures.

Sania still a good player. Sania may not be great player but she certainly is good player .Wrist injury has caused temporary slunp in her profile, but Miss Mirza will be back with couple of Grand Slam titles in 2009.
Roger really play calm n cool game,never insult opponenet,Federer praise when he lose the game,You see Nadal the way he show his fist n swing his arm when he just get one point from opponenet, same as Lleyton Hewitt.
ohh Federer, we(real tennis fans) are lucky that we are living the same era of You. Coming generation can hear stories about you, legend of tennis If you play Your peek form, we know nobody can touch you. It was Nadal lucky he couldn't enter final..

My dear balaji, Feder havn't played his play in last few months. Black and murry every body beat him, murry having 2-1 record against him right? wild shot and noise comparing with real class and skill?

MR.Aishu...sania should concentrate on finding a good life partner preferably Federer so that she can win grandslam through her children
