I don't think he will ever be a top 10 player.

I don't see him as a future Grand Slam champion, but the top 10, why not?
I watched old man Youzhny just destroy him in Basel. It brought a smile to my face thinking of the Hewitt Wimbledon training incident.

I agree! I would have loved to hit with Lleyton!
That's a creepy picture.
I find it strange that he is doing so poorly. It's strange because it seems to be a motivational issue (if you watched him at the USO you will know what I mean). What's stopping him from being motivated? He was just beginning to do a little damage on tour and then his momentum randomly evaporated.
LOL, we will see. Talent is there. but his game is just too weird and old style. it will be interesting to see for sure. this one is hard to predict
Interesting piece.
The comparison between Hewitt and Tomic at the same age is rather stark:

Perhaps you could investigate the comparison between Rafter and Tomic at the same age?
Pat was 22 before he broke into the top 50 and the same age when he won his first tournament.
(he didn't win another one for 3 years, but when he did it was the US Open!)
Tomic is 20, Rafter was ranked 293 at the same age and had never won an ATP main draw match at a GS or 1000s event..
His career turned out ok, though, don't you think?
I think the kid has some huge issues with his attitude, but I wouldn't go writing him off just yet.
