Rod Laver. He won four grand slams in Tennis. Plus the quality of opposing players in his times was very high. They were legends in thier lifetime. A galaxy of super tennis players appeared at that time.

I say Pete Sampras but Roger could be coming up also

I don't think McEnroe or Borg would live with Federer or the other very top players - the game has changed.\nHowever you can only beat what you are up against on the day, so McEnroe, Connors, Borg, Laver, Rosewall etc were all great for their time as was Fred Perry - where's the next Great Brit coming from - Andy Murray?

Federer, he is amazing to watch almost one of the best players of all time except when he is matched against nadal

Ginepri is playing well and Sampras has not played a match in a long time. However don't ever underestimate the abilities of Sampras. I mean he has won 14 grand slams. Come on. It could be a good match if Sampras is in shape, otherwise Ginepri is able to win.

Since I have actually been asked this question before by some female tennis fans I will repeat what I told them.  The male tennis player with the largest female following is undoubtedly Marat Safin.  Since I was asked for my opinion I told them that David Ferrer of Spain had the look of a top male model.  To check on these players you can go to atptennis.com and enter their names for pictures.

Depends on the surface: \n\nOn Grass Pete Sampras in his prime is the best has an edge over Federer, Sampras had the best serve in the game.\n\nOn Hard court, Sampras and Federer would be evenly matched. \n\nClay court: Many players. \n\nOverall: Sampras is the greatest for now, unless Federer beats his grand slams record.

Nadal can definatly beat Borg's record and I hope he beats Vilas! Nadal played great to beat Federer and unless some other player figures out how to beat him on clay, Nadal could win at least 12 more.

It is Roger Federer , the current ATP world number 1.He crossed 8 million dollar mark after winning the Tennis Masters Cup at Shanghai, breaking his own record of most prize money earned ina single season .His previous record was of 7 million .\n\nThis is to Cumquat - yes you are right.

For men, you'd have to say Pete Sampras.  He won Wimbledon 7 times, against relatively tough competition.  For clay, I'd probably pick Borg who won the French Open six times.  Although I'd believe a modern player like Nadal would beat Borg, that has as much to do with modern equipment as anything.  For hard courts, I'll pick Ivan Lendl.  Lendl had perhaps the worst win record of anyone of his talent, but he reached the U.S. Open final from 1982-1989, which is 8 consecutive years in a row, and he won it 3 years in a row.  Had Lendl been just a little tougher mentally, he would be considered the best player ever.\n\nFor doubles, hmm, I'll go with the classic of John McEnroe and Peter Fleming, although there were many very talented doubles teams.  Its popularity has fallen due to a lack of a top singles player.\n\nFor women on grass, I'll pick Martina Navratilova. I know. She won Wimbledon 9 times, and she was a finalist 3 more times.  That's a lot of times to reach the finals.  Steffi Graf won 7 times as a baseliner, but I prefer to see a serve and volleyer on grass, especially considering how few women play this style of tennis anymore.  On clay, Chris Evert was the queen of clay, winning the French Open 7 times and reaching the finals twice more.  Women's hard courts is a close call.  Martina won the US Open on hard court 4 times, but was finalist 4 more times.  Steffi Graf won it 5 times, and was finalist 3 more times.  I'll give the edge to Graf. \n\nFor women's doubles, I'd pick Martina Navratilova and Pam Shriver.  They're the only doubles player to win the Grand Slam.  They won 109 matches in a row, a record.\n\nIf you had to pick mixed doubles, you'd have to pick Margaret Court who won a mixed Grand Slam in 1963 with Ken Fletcher, then again in 1965, with three different partners (John Newcombe, Ken Fletcher, Fred Stolle).

Bjorn Borg won the French 6 times I think along with his 5 straight Wimbledon titles but the US Open eluded him, losing to Jimmy Connors twice and John McEnroe twice in the finals.  Ivan Lendl won the French 3 times, US Open 3 times, and Australia at least once but he could never take Wimbledon.  I know it wasn't exactly addressing your question but it just letting you know about other top players who had one grand slam leg elude them.

Elijah, how can you bet against Federer? The man is a beast. He is a machine. His best surface is grass. He broke Borg's record. You can't bet against him. No one can beat him, especially on grass.
