what a player! what a player! when i was much, much younger, i used to listen to the radio for the latest tennis results. there was once he won 4 consecutive tournaments (if i'm not mistaken). brilliant! but he wasn't at his peak then. still, one of the best. temperamental but a genius nevertheless

No doubt he was very good during his time.
To me, the best tennis player ever will be between Pete Sampras and Roger Federer.

John McEnroe, together with Pete Samprass, Jimbo, Andre, Steffi are all legends of tennis and members of tennis 'Hall of Fame'.
McEnroe has a special ability to confuse his opponents as he is a left hander and plays with a continental grip (sorry, a little technical). He's an all rounder who doesn't have to practice as much as most other tennis professionals to produce highest level of play.
His arrogance acts as a decoy and marketing stunts most of the time and his ability to 'psycho' his opponents is his biggest asset.

I think Anson F is talking about Andre Agassi when he had the 'Rock & Roll' hairstyle. He brought a new era of fun in tennis. His coach at that time was Nick Bollittiery who made him a sex icon. He was named the world's top 10 most sexiest men. Now he 'BOTAK'.
