Players playing style and musical instrument
So the idea came from the article that compare Federer's style of play to the piano and Nadal's to the drums.
Seems like a fun way to explore this... McEnroe = Violin Agassi = Cymbals (loud from both sides) Lendl = Trombone |

Santoro - accordion. A FRENCH accordion. Such an abomination...
Karlovic - that big, loud drum that makes a lot of noise, but fails to bring anything special... besides the "BOOM". Djokovic - guitar. Fun and entertaining, seems to have everything. Both easy and hard to use. Good for beginners and masters. But it's still quite common instrument. Safin - organ. Big, loud, great range. Can literally blow you off the cour... the rehearsal. Too bad that the player is often drunk and can't hit a C for his life. This is fun! |

 Timpani can be tuned! I think Karlovic is more like a GONG:

Federer...this is a toss-up betweem a Cowbell (in memory of his dearly loved cow Juliette) or a tambourine..as Federer prances around the court in his own inimitable style.

That pic is pretty funny but it should be a Wood Block in his hand. That is the sound he is used to hearing when he shanks his backhand.

How is McEnroe a violin. He is death metal.
