His face is fine!
Apart from him I think all the top ones are taken..... Federer, Nadal, Murray, Roddick...not sure on Del Potro but hes only 20
Verdasco is a bit of a babe but hes also a total player.

He looks a lot like Screech Powers.
You need to be consistently ranked in the Top 20 or be a phenom with endorsement deals at the age of 16 to have any hopes of becoming a multimillionaire playing tennis. Otherwise you are usually just making enough to cover expenses and put a little something away. It's why most professional tennis players come from upper middle class and above backgrounds. There a few exceptions of course. |

Top paid tennis players last year according to Forbes:
1. Roger Federer $35 million 2.Maria Sharapova $26 million 3. Rafael Nadal $18 million 4. Andy Roddick $15 million 5. Venus Williams $15 million 6. Serena Williams $15 million 7. Justine Henin $10 million 8. Novak Djokovic 9.5 million 9. Ana Ivanovic $8 million 10. James Blake $7.5 million They're either women or married/in serious relationships, except for Djokovic and Blake. Djokovic is disgusting, but I wouldn't mind a getting a rock like that from Blake

Maria makes most of her money in endorsements.

Most of them do.
Roger only won the US Open last year the rest of the 30 million came from endorsements. Maria didn't play for the 2nd 1/2 of last
year and she still bought in a ton of money.

Maria makes most of her money in endorsements. I believe that's the case for all of them. Federer which has the higher prize money from all of them (and first or second of all time) should be slightly above $40 million for his entire career, but reported to have made 35 million only last year. I'm pretty sure that's the same for all of them. |
