OK. He was not very rubbish at all ;)

very poor bait imo

By:
Hen Man was just his fight name
|
|
By:
IIRC was given loads of easy draws at wimbers, usually starting with a useless clay courter. Nice chap though...........English.

By:
all seeds get useless early draws you utter utter mug

Henman was a very very good player. Not world class like Sampras or Federer, but as good as any other Wimbledon champion in the last 20 years.
However he was a choker and that's why he never won a biggie. |
|
By:
LOL, Samps and Fed have won more than half of the titles in the last 20 years!! I can only think of Ivanesavic and Kraichek (sic) that he might've been better than.
That said, a very solid player and a terribly decent bloke, to boot...........when not poleaxing ballgirls in a fit of pique. |
|
By:
Very good player but not better than Goran.
|
|
By:
Henman was world class - if you're comparing him with Fed and Sampras, you're comparing him with all time greats, legends of the game.
Like, say, comparing Steven Gerrard with Bobby Moore and Pele. |

Tim Henman = A chronic underachiever.
His privileged upbringing was everything that working class Britain despised about Tennis. His snooty father, well remembered for forever being "suited and booted " in the searing Wimbledon sunshine and looking completely out of place amongst the fans was another reason I myself, loathed Henman http://www.independent.co.uk/multimedia/archive/00111/NWS08_111698t.jpg Andy Murray, for all he is a bit of a stroppy cnut, is a welcome relief |

By:
he never had the killer instinct... as for what am I world champ at, i'm crap at sports where the ball moves.

totally irrelevant to the question - you are letting your personal view cloud your judgement, you probably lose a lot of money on here |
|
By:
strangely enough, I dont lose any at all on the Chit Chat forum.
|
|
By:
henman over achieved
for his talent the same as someone like safin under achieved |
|
By:
Say what you like, but Tim was undoubtedly, the best UK mens player, since Perry.
|
|
By:
henman was good, plagued by bad luck imo,
from a scotsman |
|
By:
Perry wouldn't have taken a set from Henman.
Eras etc, not fred's fault but it's a different game now |
|
By:
I must admit I do like Murray, he does have a bit of bottle and doesn't care who he upsets :)
|
|
By:
Henman was class. I would say he achieved about right for his talent. He was unlucky to peak at the same time as the greatest grass-courter of all time, in an era of quality grass-courters. Could have beaten goran, and maybe rafter, but he didn't and I don't think he let britain down.
