If I was in my 20s hands down Tomic. Models, fast cars ...

But a left field choice would be Li Na. I like her sense of humour and she can laugh at herself.

I'd like a chat with Roger over a few drinks about his tennis career.
As for the girls, it would have to be Maria. I think Schiavone might be fun too.

Andy Murray, because we both don't drink, so we would probably have a lot of fun.

I would be concerned for Nadal. I'd be worried you'd try to spike his drink and take advantage of him..

I didn't expect that answer by you.

Federer is a self serving, egomaniac. I couldn't drink with that primadonna.

Djokovic or Murray and Nadal seem the most down to earth cats to go to the pub and down some brews with

I'd have lunch with Murray (chummy mood), dinner with Rafa (sexy mood) and breakfast with Djoko (wake up mood booster ). I'd need a vodka tonic with Fed to forget how annoying he is. Cheers!

I really think you should go clubbing with Djokovic, not breakfast. He doesn't seem like a breakfast person somehow.

I'd have a drink with any of them in order of preference Djokovic, Federer, Nadal, Murray

Djokovic for a night out or lunchtime pint in the pub, Federer for some swanky place where I'd never get into without him (maybe a bar in Wimbledon when that's going on) - or a swiss german bar if they exist, Nadal a drink on the beach somewhere in spain. Murray in.... a backstreet Scottish drinking den? Nah I think I'd give it a miss Oh ok, a quick drink in a pub in west London nears Queens when that's going on.

Juan Monaco also seems nice, so I think I'd go with Nadal and Monaco, and if Nadal hangs out with him on a regular basis, then he must be a nice person to be around.

The Fed idea is actually genius. I'd use him to go to the trendiest Hollywood bar (and hope to catch a glimpse of Keanu, my movie crush!) Clubbing with Djoko and beach bumming with Rafa also sound brilliant. Has Novak ever said he was not a morning person? I'm not either, that's why I thought he would be perfect to cheer me out of my grumpy am mood

Lots of creeps and stalkers around here.

Personally I reckon all tennis players are bores. Let them provide us with mediocre sporting entertainment, but they should get lost when off the court.

If Nadal only hung around with nice people, you would have zero chance of getting invited.

I don't know if he isn't a morning person, maybe he is. Just seems he'd be more fun to be around in the evening. But your reasoning is good.

Actually, I think I'd be one of the first people on the list from Talk Tennis to be invited by Nadal, compared to the other posters on here who are completely obsessed with him. Nadal has that effect on people. Even in his absence, he is even more popular than federer.

Nadal. I'd get him drunk and he'd spill the beans.

Are you saying that out of the group of people who are completely obsessed with him, you are one of the first (completely obsessed) people he'd invite? Well Nadal has a reputation for not being bright, so if that's true I guess he would invite the biggest obsessed fantard and not even think about his personal safety.

Also I said IF Nadal only hangs around with nice people, then he wouldn't invite you. That statement is a borderline fact.

Throw your Federer hate out of the window for once. It's not about how many majors they won or what they could achieve. Just because Federer has won more than Nadal it doesn't mean that you need to hate everything about him. I'd hang out with Nadal, why not. Federer looks like one of those goofy funny guys, I'm not sure he drinks high percentages though.

As for the rest of the top 4 - Murray looks like a total bore, he barely smiles and he's not one of those "serious" funny guys (if you know what I mean). Djokovic would be just plain annoying.

Out of the top 4 - Sam Querrey hands down. I bet he's a super cool dude.
The rest: Gulbis, Dimitrov and the French guys - Monfils, Gasquet, Tsonga.
