Pretty much the perfect body for tennis...slender, lean, flexible and strong trunk/upper body.

I agree, it's just right for tennis.

As for being "ripped", not so much. I think Murray is the more muscular of the two.

They are indeed. Apparently he put on a further 3lbs of muscle in his lower body over the off season. To do that over a couple of months, when he was already pretty big before, is impressive!

I wonder what diet his trainers have him on, to practice most of the day in the Miami sun and to still be eating enough to grow is crazy, he must never stop eating

can't believe no one replied to this and said doping... that seems to be the norm around here recently.

I don't know what I would do if a doping scandal hit tennis. I love this sport more than any other and don't want to see it ruined...

Not that impressive. I've seen much more impressive, manlier-looking physiques.

Djokovic has come a long way since the world viewed him as the player most likely to retire from a tennis match. The transformation is anything but human.

You don't understand PEDS. Was Lance Armstrong 10x bigger than Djokovic?

The issue with Djokovic is not his build anyway. Its that he want from number one retiree on tour to by far the best 5-set player on tour.

What is the issue? There's an issue? Only a complete idiot would think that doping is the only possible way to achieve that.

How do you go from being the player most likely to retire from a tennis match to being the best 5 set player on tour? I don't buy it.

Murray, Verdasco and Nadal are all bigger than him, next.

Besides, I'm not sure how this could come as a surprise to anyone, considering how often he rips his shirt off, to show off his 'manly' body.
