Point of the month,if not point of the year! Santoro is one of the most entertaining players ever to play the game!

[vincyane06]

Now Fabrice is retired. No one in the future will play tennis as he did 20 years long.

We will regret him

federer like!

@superstition222 For Santoro the reason is simply, artistry and on-court variety. Other players, charisma, easy on the eyes, fashion, engaging, heart athleticism.....I can keep going but if you are a casual fan its hard to get past the top 5. While a player like Fed might make it look easy most people can't relate; other plays emotionally engage you, others take you on their on-court emotional trip with them (Safin/Ivanisevic). So many reasons....

Esto es tenis, Nadal hoy es el numero uno pero no existe como tenista al lado de estos jugadores, de los federer, de los santoro, de los agassi, de los gaudio, de los coria... ojala vuelvan los lujos, los cambios de ritmos, el arte aplicado a este deporte que hoy es mas potencia y palo y a la bolsa que otra cosa

DID YOU SEE???????? FOREHAND WIYH TWO HANDS BUT BACKHAND WITH THE LEFT?????

@373axle Santoro's shots are from sheer brilliance. Federer's are from insane athleticism combined with deft touch and understanding of the court.

[superstition222]

@DestroyerAlexandros He was defending champion at that tournament. So much for being "unsuccessful".

[373axle]

Santoro's amazing shots are much more entertaining than Federer's, or anybody else's that I've seen for that matter.

I don't know why people like an unsuccessful tennis player
