henman had talent to win more than he really did....

Henman has the best volley i've ever seen

@kusaby99 I'm a big Henman fan but that's a pretty silly statement. Rios, Mecir, Enqvist, Davydenko, Nalbandian, Philippoussis, Pioline, Coria, Haas, Grosjean and Norman are very arguably better than Henman, though Henman at his best could easily and has beaten all of them.

@bcthomps The best not to win a grand slam until Andy Murray came along

@tacticalmarine I don't know but perhaps, maybe, he learned it from Pete Sampras. Masters Cup 1996 Final match vs Boris Becker. It's not just because it's Sampras (or it is) but Sampras did it mutch better. Watch that match.

Great video. Shame Henman couldn't have won Queens. I always felt against Hewitt that if he had have stayed back a little more, ne may have beaten him more than just the once. I feel this as Hewitt loved a target, and when playing his best, always seemed to be able to hit that 'special pass/lob'. In my opinion, Henman was the best player not to win a slam.

You forget how great Henmans net play was. Superb.

@pablotjob true...his netplay was awesome ;D

@spinjatennis At the time, I was rooting heavily for Ivanisevic to win that match and the whole tournament. Looking back, though, I kinda feel bad that Henman never could get it done. (He could have beaten Rafter in the final, too. Agassi might have been a different story, though.) Other than maybe Todd Martin, nobody deserved to have a major title more than Henman.
