Which players do you believe to this day inspire the biggest fan wars. Here are some I can think of:


Graf vs Navratilova- it seems either fan base cant bear the thought of their player not being greater than the other in this case and both fan bases manipulate anything they can find about the timing of their matchups, their respective opponents, and their various stats to make one look bettter than the other.

Sampras vs Federer- Well TW is already proof of this.

Graf vs Seles- the stabbing naturally only intensified the fan wars between the two, especialy when it led to Graf seperating herself from Seles by a chasm in the end.

Federer vs Nadal- This is even more extreme than Sampras vs Federer if anything.

Williams vs Henin- It seems the ardent fans of the Sisters imparticular cannot stand Henin.
 
Definitely Nadal and Federer, to suggest otherwise is plain ignorance. and this is one of the most uncontroversial and also pointless thread.
