I really became a tennis fan as a pre-teen, in the mid-1980s, and I have favorite players from each era since then:

Mid- to late-80s:

1990s

2000s

Chris and Borg, Edberg and Chris (still) and Monica, and now Roger and no one...there's more women that I dislike than like playing the game now than I can tolerate.

Was a big Agassi fan for awhile.
Then became a huge fan of Lleyton Hewitt...he remains my all-time fave male.
Love Nadal.

Loved Hingis.
LOVE the WILLIAMS sisters. Serena is my all-time fave female.
