Federer by a mile. Tennis wont be the same when he retires. Probably Sharapova on the women's side.

I think Sharapova is up there, but the Williams Sisters are famous beyond tennis, Clijsters would also be up there.

Federer by a long way. Rafa has made lot of inroads, but just lost his shot at matching him ever.

You have got to be kidding!

I would say Sampras, Federer and Agassi (in no particular order). On the women's side I would say Steffi Graf.

Believe it not but Roddick is incredibly well known, and to non-tennis followers more popular than Federer. But aside from that foible, I'd say Federer, Agassi, Mac.

I think we're talking about in world wide fame. Roddick probably is more famous than Fed in the US.

Federer just crossed the 9 million fans mark a month ago on fb.
