if Big D woulda worked on his footwork he could have been a force to reckon with ... more than he was. sad.

@tensionbench Do you think Rod Laver using today's high tech racquets would beat Roger Federer. I don't think so. Nor do I think Federer would have beaten Laver using the wood Dunlop Maxpli that Laver used.

@mrbobevans

the guys you named can go under the ones I listed (lol) so you think a prime Marty Hogan or Dave Peck could beat a prime Jack Huczek? Id say Huczek woulda desroyed them. Their 70s Leach or Bandito racquets wouldnt help out very much.

@Fernandez218 I was just reading in a tennis magazine about ideal height, specifically about the super tall players, like Del Potro 6'7", Isner 6'9", Cilic, 6'6'' and Querry 6'6". Patrick McEnroe still believes that 6'1" is the ideal height, but these big guys cause problems with their serves and can handle high topspin shots, such a Nadal. How tall is Suds?

@mrbobevans i think Kane is 5'10. same with Swain. I know Mannino is a small dude. My dad saw him in Houston playing. He's probably like 5'6 or something like that.

@tensionbench How can you not include Marty Hogan, Charley Brumfield, Dave Peck and Bud Muehleisen in that group. Each were dominant during their eras. It is like not including Rod Laver or Pancho Gonzalez as the best tennis players of all time.

Best players of all time

Kane Waselenchuk'

Cliff Swain

Sudsy monchik

Jason Maninno

Jack Huczek

Rocky Carson
