The Czech Republic Posted September 13, 2004 Report Posted September 13, 2004 Because they're the flashy ones with the personalities. The fact that Roddick & Agassi are American adds heavily to that. Lleyton produces headlines by being fairly blunt with journalists in press conferences. He's very Aussie, if some journalist asks him a dumb question, he tends to rip on them rather than humour them. Federer's a really quiet, unassuming player who has been very unobtrusive in his rise to the top. However, today he has done what it took Agassi most of his career to achieve and what Sampras could never manage in that he has now won all 4 Majors. Being as young as he is he is now a serious possibility to take out The Grand Slam at some point in his career. I like Lleyton Hewitt, he's cool. But Federer, I don't like so much. Doesn't he cry a lot when he wins? Hewitt just pumps his fists and says "COME ON!" and stuff so he's cooler.
Guest Nanks Posted September 13, 2004 Report Posted September 13, 2004 He's definitely got cooler since he stopped pointing his hand at himself like an imaginary friend and yelling "C'mon Balboa". He has a mild Rocky obsession. He does play with a massive amount of passion though, it certainly makes him more entertaining. He's been known to very audibly call a chair umpire a "fuckin' spastic" in the past too, that was most amusing.
