I'd say the Spanish Armada. That's a you-pick-um...Moya, Nadal, Robredo, Lopez, Ferrer

I sometimes notice that almost any halfway decent looking guy who is in incredible shape looks like a movie star. It's very rare in every day life to see a guy who's in really incredible shape. So tennis players already have incredible fitness going for them, plus they tend to be tall, so no wonder ATP players are considered way above average in looks. Being in shape does wonders for a person, it brings out your cheekbones and jawline.

He's one of the weirdest looking guys I've ever seen. Looks like one of those monster imps from the videogame Doom, except with hair.
I'm thinking more like BLANKA from Street Fighter II :mrgreen:

Dent may have enormous teeth and make weird faces, but when you guys get older, you'll appreciate his hair. I'd pay lots of $$ to have that much hair again.

I am one of the few females who post on this board. Federer is the best looking guy currently on the ATP tour. David Nalbandian is good looking too. Tommy Haas is very pretty, but guys aren't supposed to be that pretty.

I don´t like Nalbandians look.. and also Moyas and Fereros.. they are strange.

Why can´t Taylor be bald when he gets older? Andre had lots of hair too and..:rolleyes:

But if Taylor was at a bar, and he wasn't grimacing like a maniac giving birth, he would probably get plenty of attention from women. On No Strings, he actually came across like a chill, somewhat funny So-Cal homeboy, and he's tall and in relatively good shape. Compared to Marat he's no pretty boy, though.

SAFIN by a mile....but he was really gawky looking as a 15 year old & had bad teeth. Then there was the blond teenage look. LOL (see safinator.com for pics.

So there is hope for all.....get your teeth veneered and hope you get to be as tall as he is.

Safin is definitely the hottest guy on tour. DAAAAAAAANG. except, with his bun right now, the only thing i can do to make him look hot is to put my finger over his bun to in pictures to cover it. otherwise when he cuts his hair he'll be like.. so fineeeee

Why didn't anyone mention Thomas Enqvist? Saw him in person last year vs. Roddick. Thomas is a handsome man for sure; I thought he looks like a blend of Marat Safin + Jan-Mike Gambill

Esp how he looked 2 years ago.

Perhaps from your vantage point, but man, he looks great even now. I know he's pushing 30, but he's got it. And I think he and Flavia make a great couple. Too bad we don't have more photographs of them. :D

my ex-girlfriend who was very much into tennis used to make comments about these guys; Moya, Safin, Lopez, Ginepri, Acasuso, and I also remember her saying something once about Ancic.

What do you girls think of ljubicic? He's like tall and in charge got a smooth game, kinda like federer.

This is my thing with Ljubicic-

Does he have a bald oddly shaped head? Check.
Does he have an odd, gummy smile? Check.
Do I still find him sexualy appealing. Check.

Ivan is not tradionally attractive at all. But to me he still has an appeal.

so you think Ljubicic is good looking?? :confused:

I honestly don't know, I'm just asking the girls. I'm curious because federer and ljubicic are the alpha males on tour right now. All the top 50 got money so you know that's not it.

Ljubicic, yikes. Are you seriously telling us that if you saw him walking down the street and didn't know who he was, you'd be attracted?
 
Middle aged and 'older' female tennis fans probably remember swooning over the likes of:
Pancho Gonzales, Lew Hoad, Cliff Drysdale, Francis X. Shields, John Newcombe, Ilie Nastase, Guillermo Vilas, Bjorn Borg, Stefan Edberg, Boris Becker, Yannick Noah, Patrick Cash and Cedric Pioline.
Years ago, I think I remember my mother mentioning Adriano Panatta.

It is funny to imagine this discussion on TalkTennis in the 1970s.

How groovy a guy Nastase must be.

Who else is digging the beads around Arthur's neck? What about Laver's shells?

What a drag it would be to date that new kid, Jimmy something. What about that new dreamboat Bjorn Borg? The tennis instructor I'm going with says Bjorn's elbow is going to fall off because of his ugly forehand grip.

The equipment section:

What kind of wristbands does Vitas Gerulaitis wear, and why does he sniff them so much?

Laver's got a Chemold paint job over a Maxply!! I have photos from my Canon AE-1!! I will use the USPS to mail them to you guys as soon as they are back from the darkroom.

Snauwaert, Donnay or Volkl? Which company will survive into the 21st century?

Coke, Pepsi or Tab?
Kramer, Maxply or aluminum?

What powers are hidden in Newk's 'stache?
Next time please use the search button: facial hair.

What do you think of these huge cheaters' racquets by Prince?
Prince? The company that makes the ball machines?

Should I buy Izod/Lacoste or Fred Perry shorts?
Do Fila shirts shrink? Should I go up a size?

What is the SAS logo on Borg's shirt?

Why does Tom Gorman have a shamrock stencil on his strings?

Odds and Ends:

Who is hotter? Chrissie or Evonne?

HELP! My pet rock is a die hard Borg fan (understandably), but I dig the new American kid with the afro. We can barely watch tennis together!!

What is your favorite 8-track? I read that Raul Ramirez is a big Joan Baez fan. So hep, man!
Think the Beatles will get back together this summer? We ought to all get together and send them some positive vibes every day at the same time for a month.

I heard Mr. Peanut is an "A" player at his summer club.

I strung for Pancho at Caesar's Palace.

Nick Bolletieri is trying to coach your kid? That punk from upstate? Yeah, I beat him in a "B" tournament. Good wheels, but no backhand. Doesn't come in. All he does is push and hit forehands.

Renee Richards is hott.

Appealing, I imagine, in the same way as the Dr. Frankenstein's monster in "Young Frankenstein?"

i thought Ancic would be quite a hit with the ladies.
my niece liked Gasquet.
For those who liked Mauresmo, there's Martina too.

You know, I never thought much of Mario Ancic but then I had a brief conversation with him at the Cincinnati airport in August and I realized why so many women like him. He's handsome in a kind of quiet way. He looks kind of baby faced in photos, but in person you can see he's beginning to grow out of that.

I think Safin is by far the best looking :D , but I do also think that Roddick is an attractive guy. I think Safin is more of the universal beauty while Roddick is, at least to me, very all-American looking (I don't mean that in a bad way at all...) Nadal, Federer and Djokovic are interesting looking...can all kind of go both ways depending on the picture and situation...

Yeah people have varying expressions when they make contact. Some look friggin insane like Dent. Some, like Roddick look like chipmunks.

Safin looks like he's about to bite someone (kind of a cool look though).

And then there's Stepanek, who is butt-ugly no matter what he does.

Yes I know I pick on Stepanek a lot, and I know he's got way more game than I ever can hope to have. But heaven forbid if I should ever be that ugly.
