Buchholz turned pro very early (at 20). Thus his amateur record is not too great. But he reached No. 5 of the amateurs.

But we talk about the prime of the players. Here Butch was clearly better than Cooper, Olmedo and Anderson. None of them reached No.4 in the world.

Comparing Buchholz with Tim Gullikson is a shabby joke, and you do know it!

I guess you want to provoke me and to look if my tennis knowledge is good enough to disprove your statements....
Why a joke? Gullikson reach a W qf just like your beloved Buch so where is difference?
