Any one a fan of this exciting French player? He had a very fluid natural game, very good serve and shotmaking, though he never won any Masters Series or Slams, he did lead France to win the Davis Cup with two huge wins on grass in Melbourne over Hewitt and Arthurs which was in the prime of Hewitt. Helluva player beset by injuries. He is at the US Open this week for qualies and did this Q&A which is a good read, with a funny Safin story...
