Another arrogant player. (It's "all about me" ala Serena Williams). Give
me a Federrer or Sampras or especially an Agassi any day.

Fredrick Mclain Says:
He is a new guy.He got power and a whole lot of musscles.More built than a
whole lot of skinney guys on the tour.All he need is a little bit of more
training and I think one day he is going to
hit so hard that the ball spread open.
