Even-Handed?[edit]

I dispute this article being 'even-handed'. It is full of exploitative conjecture. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.205.216.65 (talk • contribs) 11:53, 5 June 2006

Golden tennis racquet[edit]

I'm just dumb, but is it the color gold or the metal gold? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 147.8.16.82 (talk • contribs) 12:33, 21 May 2007

Youngest to Win[edit]

Note that Roger Federer in winning his 11th Grand Slam (Wimbledon, 2007) at one month short of age 26, has now joined Borg in also being 25 upon reaching this milestone. (Somebody should change the affected page.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.111.200.98 (talk) 20:16, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Still Borg keeps the record for being the youngest man to accomplish such result: he won his eleventh title on 07 june 1981 at 25 years and 1 day. Federer won his 11th title the 8th of july of this year, just 31 days before his :26th brthday (25 years 324 days).

The maintainer should also add Roger Federer as winner of 11 Grand Slam together whith Rod Laver and obviously Bjorn Borg. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.74.35.101 (talk) 22:04, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
