hey,Lleyton ..,u r my favourate tennis player right from when i saw u r
match against BORIS BECKER.. u won US open at the age of 19 in 2001 &
following year u won wimbeldon . for me dat was the best period of u r
tennis career. After wards ur downward trend started. in 2004 u made a
comeback by being finalist @ us open & australian open 2005. now i m
eagerly waiting for your comeback performance. According to me u can still
win 2 more grand slams surely ur home grandslam which is u r chilhood dream
. c'mon plz fulfil my wish of seeing u winning grandslam. i know u r d real
fighter on court. i m really crazy abt ur never say die attitude. u always
give 200% on court. plz convert it into a grandslam winning combination.
