Lendl and Hewitt

 

[Sanz]

Why did you have match Lendl & Agassi ? Why ? One was my fav. in the 80s and the other my favorrite player from 90s and 2000s.

Lendl & Chang.

 

[grecian]

Agassi & Hewitt

Andre and Ivan won the same amount of slams, yet crucially, for me AA, did the career slam.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Agassi/Lendl is a tough call. As I'm a parochial Englishman, it's tempting to go for Agassi as he landed the big one, but as their careers overlapped they actually played each other 8 times, with the former Czech holding a 6-2 advantage, so it's Lendl here.

Hewitt in the second. Was the undoubted number one for a time & Chang never was, quite.

[dontcloseyoureyes]

**** that first match-up is brutal.

Agassi and Hewitt.

 

[NUFAN]

First matchup is a classic as has already been said.

Going to go with Agassi, obviously saw more of him, he was just a briilliant player to watch, top bloke.

Going for Hewitt in the other one.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Lendl 4-3 0-3 (second set runs until 08.17 UTC, three hours and 33 minutes from now)
Hewitt 4-1 4-0 - match over

[Goughy]

Lendl

 

[The Sean]

Andre and Ivan both looking enviously at the other battle and wondering why they couldn't be in it...

Lendl by a fraction.
