How do you define each generation?

[gold soundz]

What years make up each generation, and what players?

Here's my take from 1981 (I'm only listing the biggest players of each generation):

1981-1984:
Federer
Hewitt
Roddick
Ferrer
Verdasco
Coria
Davydenko
Nalbandian

1985-1988:
Nadal
Djokovic
Murray
Del Potro
Wawrinka
Tsonga
Berdych
Gasquet
Cilic
Monfils

1989-1992 (the lost generation):
Nishikori
Raonic
Dimitrov
Tomic
Janowicz

1993-1996:
Kyrgios
Kokkinakis
Coric

What do you think? Is this a pretty definitive generation chart?

I don't think Federer's generation began with his birth. I would say players like Nalbandian, Haas, Blake, Ljubicic, Fish, Davydenko also belong to his generation.
