This is what it mean to be King of Tennis, Roger use talent
to help people all over world in time of trouble, once again he is hero. I not surprised Nadal fans don't want Nadal to play, Nadal fan care more about tennis match than people who are hurt and suffering.

Why would it have to be the same players every time anyway? Players can take turn participating. Nothing wrong with that.

Very generous of Roger. Best class. Great respect for Federer.

seriously, why just donate money. Use your talent to attract a crowd to donate even more money. |

Are you saying you don't want Nadal to play to help people in disaster because it might hurt his chance to win a tennis match? I was not really speaking on you, I was speaking on man before you who say he does not want Nadal to play, usually you are nice person even though you are Nadal fan.

Roger invites Rafa to these to soften him up.
It always backfires on Rafa and he gets injured. Roger wins Aussie, Rafa struggles with injuries.

I am Ok about Nadal not wanting to play, he can just give some monies, his watch and maybe one of his water scooters to help in flood.

is it really that unfortunate that the tennis players want to use their talent in tennis and enjoy playing a game in which they know all the money will go to help others?

I praise Federer's effort in fundraising. But I commend those who donate without wanting any publicity. This needs a bigger heart.. to donate from their heart and not showing it off to the public.

I hope Federer gives all his AO prize money to the relief fund. It's not like he needs the money. Instead the public are giving their money.

I don't know how people can criticise these guys for doing a charity event. Having an event on TV would have a huge positive effect on the monies collected for the cause compared with people just announcing they have written a cheque.
