Tim Henman Quotes
June 26, 2005: "I
said 'most' of Britain's tennis journalists don't know
what they're talking about. A lot of people agree with
me. I'm pissed off, I say it, and what happens? It's
been a pain in the arse."
—British star Tim Henman, telling it like (he thinks) it is, in
The Times (UK)
November 15, 2004: "Our
media is probably the worst in the world. Unfortunately,
that's part of our culture. When you speak to tennis
journalists, you notice how little they understand.
I started asking technical and tactical questions, and
it was embarrassing. I was embarrassed for them. They
knew nothing, they knew nothing about the game. I've
never been influenced by their opinions anyway, but
now we are talking tennis and they didn't know anything."
--British star Tim Henman,
commenting to the Swiss press
during the Basel tournament.
September 20, 2004: "Well,
if you take Roddick's serve, Agassi's return, my volley,
and Hewitt's speed, you've probably got a chance."
-- Tim Henman, who was routed by Roger Federer in the U.S. Open semis, when asked if anyone can challenge the Swiss superstar.
