I admire Roger Federer, not only for his tennis but also for his personality.
I remember Agassi playing Federer in Basel, Switzerland in 1998, and Andre was already saying at that time that Federer would be tough. Usually at the time players are 17, you can see if they will be great.
I would have loved to have met Roger Federer.
I was kind of hoping it was Anna Kournikova.
If I had to choose one man to play for my life, it would be Nadal.
Many say that (Pete) Sampras is the greatest player. But I say with all due respect to the rest, that he (Roger Federer) is the most complete player in the world so far.
You'd have to think that if he'd been around today, Rod Laver would have been Rod Laver.
My hero is Roger Federer.
Beating Roger Federer is a match I will remember for years to come. All my respect to him. Federer is arguably the greatest player to have ever played our sport, so beating him at Wimbledon was really special.
I'm very interested in tennis, but when I try to tell younger players about [Bill] Tilden, they're not interested.
A lifetime with Venus Williams will not be enough.
Roger [Federer], he brought tennis... one level higher. Normally he toys with everybody. With all respect to other players, he does whatever he wants on the court against them. It's incredible what kind of game he can play.
If Roger stopped right now and never won another match, to me he'd already be one of the greatest players to ever play the game. To me, he's the greatest all around talent that I've ever seen.
It's Roger Federer - this guy has about a million Grand Slams and done everything.
Billie-Jean King used to take me out on court and say that she just wanted to watch my forehand. You can't get greater praise than that.
I won't admit to having a poster of Borg on my bedroom door. But I certainly found him to be someone who got me way more into tennis.
Andy Murray's already done what is needed for British tennis, which is ignite it. There's a person, there's a player that kids want to be like.
Serena Williams is the greatest tennis player of all time, the greatest female athlete of all time, the greatest athlete of all time.
I would love to have been a tennis player simply because of Serena Williams.
Serena Williams best female player ever - no question.
It's funny because, growing up, I found inspiration from watching Steffi Graf and Amanda Coetzer, a South African who was in the top 10 for many years. Oh, and then there's someone I've gotten to know over the last few years: Martina Navratilova.
