If Andy could watch me play, I am sure he will be of the same opinion. The difference being I pay and play ... while he gets paid even if he cannot play. ;-)

Andy not having the tennis brain that I feel the "next great American" player should have is what I am upset about. And the media has lifted him far above till he has started to believe the hype. Give me Ginepri, Blake anyday. Andy's game is in shambles and has been going down steadily in the last 2 years. One would think that he would have worked on it by now. Everybody seems to return his serve these days.

It's clear he's doing very little work - just making too much money, too much fame & fun offcourt.

Tough to blame him, but that kind of attitude doesn't get you a lasting legacy once you retire. Agassi was able to turn it around, so he has time. He'll need to make a drastic change & seriously commit to tennis at expense of almost everything else. I don't know him personally so don't know if he's willing to make this sacrifice - if not he'll be a 3 slam guy at best....
