It's more as said he's not as good as he was. He was an extremely good doubles player and fearsome net coverer.

I like Andrew Cotter, Mark Petchey, Annabel Croft and Sam Smith. I think Peter Fleming and John McEnroe are good pundits. Annabel Croft also does good post match interviews.


 All of these and Cotrer gets bonus points from me for having a nice Scottish accent. 

Also enjoyed Andy Roddick when they had him on the Beeb a few years ago, he was excellent and Hewitt is also very good. Is Clijsters a comms or pundit?  Andy was good last year when he did it and Laura. 

Dislike - Castle, Lloyd, Invers, Bartoli, Becker. 


Ronald McIntosh is by far the worst tennis commentator I have heard 


LOL - annually remarked on re Ronald. When you have that voice and no particular insight, oh dear ...

 I've nicknamed capt obvious, he has absolutely nothing new to say, and the experts they pair him with end up showing him up, though are too polite to say so.

Love Andy's doubles style as he's shouting 'me' ....'me'......

And he's not wrong - tight set but 'our' boys win the tie-break

To be honest, I am very pleasantly surprised, I never expected Cam and Munar to do anything, on grass as well. Well done, so far, to them.
