I think Roger Federer is 185cm slack. Also Nadal like 184cm no more. Maybe Murray is 188-188.5cm not more. He doesn't seem to be 6.3 and federer 6.1
Hugh 191cm says on 2/Nov/09
Murray 190cm, Federer 186-187cm, Nadal 184-185cm, Roddick 187-188cm john says on 14/Oct/09
Roger Federer is 6'1, he is a tall man and yet average in tennis now as all youngsters coming through are over 6'0 it seems, here are a few stats.
Bernard Tomic- Age :16 Height: 6'4- 1.93m, Grigor Dimitrov- Age: 18 Height: 6'2-1.88m, Jerzy Janowicz- Age: 18 Height: 6'8- 2.02m, Milos Raonic- Age:18 Height: 6'5- 1.95m, Devin Britton- Age: 18 Height- 6'4- 1.93m,
It seems most of the young players on atp are all 6'2 or above, I mean the big Younger tennis stars like Djokovic- 6'2 Murray 6'3, Del Potro- 6'6, Cilic- 6'6 are other examples of guys who are 6'2, 6'3 and higher, It seems 6'1 is average for most tennis players these days . Hugh 191cm says on 11/Oct/09
Yeah 186cm for Federer, Nadal looks more 6ft0.5 maybe a weak 6ft1, Roddick is definately close to 6ft2 if not that (187-188cm). Jason says on 2/Oct/09
federer is always slouching..!!
if this guy stood straight and sorted out his posture..there's every chance he could be 6ft 2.
but atp tennis websites don't lie...he is 6ft 1.
a more interesting height is that of rafael nadal...who is listed as 6ft 1. in pictures taken of him with roger...nadal appears slightly shorter than his swiss opponent, perhaps only 6ft. carl says on 2/Oct/09
Roger is 6'1- That seems to be average for tennis players these days, the new generation of players are all well over 6'0 it seems, Look at the giants Ivo Karlovic and John Isner they are both 6'10 or around there, definetely not too far off 7'0, Juan Martin Del potro and Marin Cilic, Sam Querrey are all 6'6. matt says on 29/Sep/09
Roger Federer is 186 cm, whatever that is in foot, I think 186cm is just over 6'1, like 6'1 1/4, Nadal is 6'1- 185cm, Roddick is 6'2- 188cm. Anonymous says on 29/Sep/09
looks even taller than that more like 6'2 if he stands up straight. Chris says on 19/Sep/09
Del Potro is as good as 21 now, he is listed at 6'6, he was 6'5 a while back, it got updated, Roddick played him recently and said Del potro as 6'7, He is around 6'6- 1.98m, he could possibly be 6'7 though, he looks large,he could possibly be 6'7 though, he looks large, the same height as fellow young gun Marin Cilic, he is a huge guy either way. Chris says on 19/Sep/09
Andy Murray is 6'3- 1.90m, that is his official height, on atp, website etc, and he said himself when asked a couple years ago, when he was 18 and broke onto atp tour he was 6'1 but he grew to 6'3., He said that he and his brother are both 6'3, same height which they are. john says on 19/Sep/09
Roger is 6'1- 1.86m, Nadal is 6'1- 1.85m, Murray is taller than Djokovic, If both stood straight,Murray is 6'3- 1.90m and Djokovic is 6'1 1/2- 1.87m or maybe 6'2- 1.88m at a push, he is no more than 6'2. ivan says on 19/Sep/09
Delpo is not 198cm. He looks 202cm at least. I SAW THE us Open and he stood so much tall than fed(186cm). Fed wasn't slouching and delpo was at least 18cm taller than fed. Fed was up to delpo's down lips(like 18cm).Patrick McEnroe and Darryl Cahill said that he's 6"7 and a half(202cm) and i think it's pretty accurate even though some other web sites have him listed as 198cm. Liam says on 17/Sep/09
Josh, Murray is 6'3- 1.90m, why dont you just look at the facts, type him in on google and look on everything it has 6'3, If his official webiste has 6'3 he is becuase it is a very good updated site, He also said a while back that he and his brother jamie are 6'3, He doesnt even stand up proper straight most of the time, his posture is a bit off, he is taller than roger federer and rafa nadal who are 6'1 and is a little taller than djokovic in my opinion who is barely 6'2. Josh.J says on 14/Sep/09
matt, andy murray is just simply not 190cm. i've trying to convince people but they blindly ignore evidence. what do you make of it?

he looks 6'2" at best and 6'1.5" with djokovic. wake up! carla says on 14/Sep/09
Roger is the perfect height for a man, 6'1, around 186 cm, he always struck me as a tall man, he is not overly tall but a good height, he looks tall enough, I think between 6'1 and 6'3 is perfect height for a male to be, Federer is the best too, legend in tennis, he is greatest ever in my opinion. chris says on 14/Sep/09
Federer- 6 foot 1- 1.86m Del Potro- 6 foot 6- 1.98m
Roddick- 6 foot 2- 1.88m
Nadal- 6 foot 1- 1.85m
Djokovic- 6 foot 2- 1.88m
Murray- 6 foot 3- 1.90m dicky curtis says on 14/Sep/09
Djokovic is visibly a little taller. i think federer is 6.1 Nadal looked easily taller than 182 gonzalez. could be 185 as well. Original says on 13/Sep/09
Nadal, 184cm and Federer 185,5cm matt says on 11/Sep/09
No way, In tennis, they would have proper heights because they are athletes its not like wrestling where the heights are false, Roger is 6'1- 1.86m, Nadal is 6'1- 1.85m, Andy Murray is 6'3- 1.90m he even said it in his book and on his website he is 6'3 , he is 6'3, his brother jamie is also the same height.
The only tennis player who doesnt look like listed accurate height is Marc Gicquel, he is said to be 6'2, and he looks 5'11.5 at best. GM says on 10/Sep/09
I've been to several games. I'm 183-185cm depends on the shoes. Rafa Nadal is around 184cm barefoot maybe 183.5. He look taller because of the shoes. Federer wears shoes with thinner sole. He is definitely 186cm. And look like 188cm with shoes on. Also Nole and Roddick are both 187cm and Murray 188cm. I think some players give their height with shoes, not barefoot. Since no one walk or trains without shoes it seems normal.
Barefoot:
Nadal 184cm
Federer 186cm
Djokovic 187cm
Roddick 187cm
Murry 188cm matt says on 31/Aug/09
Federer- 6'1- 1.86m, I dont think sharapova looks 6'2, she is probably 6'0.
Andy Murray -6'3- 1.90m, Rafa Nadal- 6'1- 1.85m msn87 says on 31/Aug/09

Federer: the full 185 not 186, andy murray at 190 looks full 2 inches taller
Nadal: 184 probably
Roddick: 186.5-187
Djokovic: 186-187
Agassi: 178
Hewitt: 177-178 Jake says on 27/Aug/09
Leung: I don't think they look similar. It's still a 1-inch difference. Nadal is 6-ft sharp. You are right though...6-ft and 6'1 aren't too far apart. But it is noticeable. Especially with Federer's lean posture and high shoulder level. MD says on 20/Aug/09
Nadal has always looked visibly shorter than Federer. It may not be a full inch difference, but its' very close, and definitely enough to be visibly noticed without even having to look too hard. Leung says on 19/Aug/09
Jake they look similar height in that photo. There certainly isn't a full inch between them. Nadal is 6'1" or very close. Jake says on 18/Aug/09
To those of you claiming that Nadal is equally 6'1, please take a look at this.

Don't tell me the angle is bad...or "Nadal is at a disadvantage". Honsetly Fed and Nadal are both on the same floor and Fed looks a 1 SOLID inch taller.
Federer is strong 6'1 (1.86m)
Nadal is 6-ft (1.83m) kevin says on 17/Aug/09
Federer is 6'1 1/4- 1.86m, His official site has him at this height too, Editor you should do a height page on the giant tennis star Ivo Karlovic who is 6'10, I saw him play in person at Queens he is huge. Kallion says on 17/Aug/09
Roger is listed at 6'1- 185cm on pretty much every source including atp world tour website, But he is 6'1- 186 cm on his official website, though 185 and 186 cm is like 6;1 same height, Just 1cm higher, Rafael Nadal is 6'1- 185cm. kevin says on 14/Aug/09
Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are both 6'1- 185 cm tall, Andy Muraay is 6'3- 190 cm and Andy Roddick is 6'2- 188 cm
Rog is a great, what a man joe says on 12/Aug/09
Roger is 6'1, I prefer Rafael Nadfal to him, he is more humble Mark says on 12/Aug/09
Tom, everyone has there own opinion, when roger loses he never gives credit to the opponent, look how he cried when losing to nadal at aussie open its easy being a god when your winnning, I agree federer is greatest player ever definetely great to watch, I'm saying he has arrogance not in a bad way though, Phil Taylor is the best in my opinion he doesnt get the true reginition of how great he is and its only because he plays darts and it is wrong.
Roger Federer is 6'1 Tom says on 26/Jul/09
Mark, you are jealous of Roger Federer aren't you. Federer is not arrogant. He's only the BEST tennis player in the world. 6 ft 1.25 sounds correct. Talk your envy else where. mark says on 23/Jul/09
Roger Federer is 6'1, Doesn't look taller anyway, Legend he has earned his arrogance, Phil Taylor is still the biggest Legend though with Tiger Woods, Class acts, Taylor is the best. haha says on 11/Jul/09
Big King, I can tell you don't watch much tennis, Federer is nowhere near 6'3'' and doesn't appear to be at all, I'd say 6'1'' pretty much bang on. MD says on 8/Jul/09
He's never had the appearance of anything but what he's is, to me. I said it before, but he's always struck me as the most 6'1" that I've ever seen; a perfect measuring stick. mikez says on 8/Jul/09
Rog is no more than 183cm . They measure alot of these guys in shoes. Roddick i met , same height as me at 184cm , def not 6'2. Roddick 1/2 inch taller than fed. kevin says on 6/Jul/09
Roger is 6'1-185 cm tall, Greatest tennis player to me, he is a legend, Greatest person in sport along with the great Tiger Woods and the World Class Phil 'the power' Taylor. the truth says on 6/Jul/09
roger is 6' 1.5" exact in shoes rony192cm says on 6/Jul/09

He often looks a legit 6'3".
He NEVER looks 6'3 you dumbass. Learn height or STFU already Leung says on 5/Jul/09
Watching the Wimbledon final I noticed that Roddick is an inch taller than Federer therefore I think Roddick is the legit 62 that he gets listed at. Newbombturk says on 4/Jul/09
To be precise, 6'1 equals 185,42cm and 186cm is almost exactly 6'1 and 1/4. max says on 3/Jul/09
Roger has always been listed as 6'1- 185 cm, however his official website has him at 186 cm, its the same really, 186 cm just means he is 6'1 1/2, He has always been listed 6'1 though the same has Rafael Nadal. MD says on 2/Jul/09
I think the difference between Federer and Nadal is more than just 'very slight'; it's noticeable. Tom says on 1/Jul/09
Federer and Obama are the same height 6 ft 1.25 .....Very Interesting. Ali says on 30/Jun/09
I think Nadal is 183 cm and Federer
is 184 cm.
Roddick is 6'1 max. He is no 6'2. Roddick
does have a more full body which gives
the impression that he is bigger.
Gasquet is 6 foot. Tsonga is slightly
over 6'1.
Andre Agassi was listed as 183 cm for years.
So don't tell me that ATP heights are correct.
Agassi is 5'10-5'11.
Djokovic who is 186-187 cm. Has an inch on Federer.
Shoe inserts only give a few mm max. An inch extra
is crazy. Ali says on 30/Jun/09
I think Nadal is 183 cm and Federer
is 184 cm.
Djokovic who is 186-187 cm. Has an inch on Federer.
Shoe inserts only give a few mm max. An inch extra

he is listed by the atp at 1.85 cm. although some sites claim 1.87 and 1.86.
and don't think he is 1.87. he is shorter than djokovic. seems to have a slight edge on nadal. but have seen pictures where he looked a little shorter as well.
tricky.
but what a beautiful player. Another promising player like him is said to be even better (in comparison to their age) this is G. dimitrov. Doug says on 29/Jun/09
Does anybody seriously comprehend how much a tennis player's balance and whole game and movement would be affected if they even wore the slighest of heels? LOL. Tennis players are listed exactly what they are, there is no way they are over a cm out. Federer is 186cm, Nadal 185cm, believe it. Doug says on 29/Jun/09
Sorry Dani's comment had me in stitches. LOL. Do you honestly think either Federer or Nadal on court care about height and lifts LOL. All they care about is winning tournaments not who is the taller. Grow up!! Doug says on 28/Jun/09
Federer always looks the way he is, a legit 6'1"-6'1.5" Doug says on 28/Jun/09
Murray looks the way a legit 6'3" does. Notably tall. Federer Fan says on 17/Jun/09
Federer is a pro athlete who has regular medicals, drug tests etc. His OFFICIAL stats shown on TV during tournaments are also verfied by the ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals) on their own website Click Here I play tennis also and, whilst I don't really know what an "insert" is, I assume if you are talking about some sort of wedge in the shoe to be taller, then you are in real danger of hurting your ankles. No tennis player, let alone a pro, would do this. To be frank, debating the height of most pro athletes is a bit of a waste of time. Roberto2000 says on 12/Jun/09
He does not look like a legit 6'3 at all. He's definitely 6'1. No more. Murray is 6'3 and always looks a solid 4 or 5 cm taller. MD says on 4/Jun/09
Apo,
To add on to the point you're making, Nadal actually wears shoes a size or two smaller to further prevent rolling his ankles. Leung says on 4/Jun/09
Thank you apo. apo says on 4/Jun/09
federer is at least 6'1. Anyone who played tennis knows that the idea of any insert is absurd. Tennis shoes must have a very firm grip of the court and they should have max. contact to the ground otherwise the player can very easily roll his ankles. This is especially true for a running guy like Nadal. GM says on 3/Jun/09
I have seen them both. I'm 185 barefoot and Federer is 185. Nadal is 183, with shoes 185-6 MD says on 28/May/09
I agree, Nadal is more than worthy of his own page. Anonymous says on 27/May/09

An extra inch of shoe insert in tennis shoes, now I find that far-fetched. Forgot about the shoes, just look at him, he is obviously a tall guy, nothing less than 61. todd says on 6/May/09
Don't forget that nadal wears shoe inserts which gives him an extra inch. I think he realistically about 6.05 feet Leung says on 3/May/09
Nadal is easily 61. Did anyone see his match with Djokovic? Nadal looked similar height to 62 Novak Djokovic. dani says on 9/Apr/09
Federer is no more than 185cm(6"1).Nadal is 182-3cm(6"0).Federer looks clearly 2 or 3cm taller than Nadal. JJ says on 4/Apr/09
This guy looks 6'2 TBH. Leung says on 1/Apr/09
182cm for Nadal is unrealistic. He is 184-185cm Hello says on 1/Apr/09
If Federer was an actor or some other kind of celebrity he could probably get away with calling himself 6'3", that's how much actors lie about their height and how much tennis players are honest about their heights. Fed says he's 6'1" but he's definitely a little higher than that, he's a little bit taller than Nadal. If you see pics of him with other celebrities, he makes them look way shorter than what they say they are. ivan says on 29/Mar/09
Terry Chan says on 14/Feb/09
The height difference between federer and nadal would't larger than 1cm, actually they are at the same height, both 6'1. So you see federer is taller sometimes, while nadal maybe taller in other occasion"
Listen dude, it's impossible for a human eye to notice that kind of a difference(1cm-1.5cm). The reason why Federer looks taller than Nadal is coz Federer is 185cm and Nadal 183 or 182. 2-3cm is noticiable difference. 1cm could be only detected by an expert like glenn or Rob. Dani says on 29/Mar/09
eung as I said Nadal put insoles in his shoes, so he could look as tall as Federer. Wimbledon pics shows he's clearly shorter than Federer, I don't think he's grown anything in the last 6 months, I mean he's gonna turn 23."
I kinda agree with ya. I think nadal puts insoles in his shoes to look as tall as fedexpress but i think Roger Federer is around 184cm and Nadal 182cm. I saw both players in person and they don't look their supposed heights. Anonymous says on 26/Feb/09

Anonymous,
Are you looking at old tennis footage? Because based on the Australian Open last month I would say Nadal is comfortably 61. Nadal looked similar height to Federer and I also noticed in a couple of post-match interviews he was slightly taller than Jim Courier. Anonymous says on 24/Feb/09
I can hardly see Nadal being as tall as Federer, he always looks at least 2 cms shorter. At times he may look closer, but that's because he puts insoles in his shoes to protect his knees. I'm pretty sure Fed is one of the very few atp players to have his correct height on his profile. Nadal may be 6'0" (he was listed as 5'11" at 18 but he might have grown a bit), not his listed 6'1". Roddick sometimes looks the 6'2" he gets listed, but in some pics he looks shorter than Federer and a lot of people that met him describe him as 6'0"/6'1". Personally I always saw him as a tall guy, but I've seen only once live and I wasn't very close to judge. Hewitt is listed at 5'11" but he gets towered by Federer and many other players most of the time, I think he's at most 5'10". Djokovic is listed at 6'2", he looks marginally taller than Federer, maybe 6'1.5 is more accurate, but probably they rounded it up. I seem to remember Murray listed at 6'2" one year ago or so, probably he's not the full 6'3" but nothing less than 6'2". Gasquet was listed as 5'11" until two or three years ago, he got pro very young so he might have grown a little since he's profile has been created but sure isn't the full 6'1" and probably not even a full 6'0", met him personally a lot of time, he's clearly shorter than me (6'1.25") and also clearly shorter than Nadal. Tsonga he's listed at 6'2", I can hardly see him being anything below that, I always thought he was at least 6'3", huge guy. Verdasco listed as 6'2" is one of the silliest things ever, to me he looks not even a full 6'0", clearly shorter than Feliciano Lopez and clearly shorter than Tsonga when they met in the quarterfinals of the Australian Open. James Blake is listed at 6'1", he looks 5'11" to me. Fish is listed at 6'2", I may be wrong but I seem to remember him listed at 6'0" in 2003. Almagro, listed at 6'0" isn't any taller than 5'10". Gulbis is listed at 6'3", he clearly looks shorter than Djokovic, he's probably as tall as Nadal or just a fraction over it. Finally, Donald Young listed at 6'0" isn't anywhere close to this, at the very most he could be 5'9.5" but I wouldn't be surprised if he's even shorter. shaikha says on 22/Feb/09
Roger is 6ft 1 as well as Nadal. I met them and comparing them to my 5ft 9 frame it seemed right. Roddick on the other hand is close to 6ft 2.5 i guess... He seemed fairly large! adam says on 22/Feb/09

Yeah... sure you can notice that kind of a difference. Terry Chan says on 14/Feb/09

I did always think that Federer was taller than Nadal, although having said that, Nadal is only young, it could be that he's grown an inch or so ? Al Juraj says on 8/Feb/09
Nadal looked taller than Federer on the podium at the 2009 Oz Open ceremony, but there were many times Roger had more height. I'd say he's around 186 cm while Nadal 185 and Roddick 187. Sampras was a slouch so some of his claimed 6'1 height didn't seem to be there. Ali says on 1/Feb/09
Nadal and Federer are the same height. Nadal is
even looking taller slightly nowadays.
Both of them are 184/185 cm. DJB says on 1/Feb/09
Feder and Nadal are both 6'-1" check Click Here Nadal just beat Federer in the Auatrailin open On Feb 1, 2009. They both are true professionals. It was a great match but Federer looked a little shaken up in the in the 5Th and Final Set. Federer shed tears as he toke the podium and made his speach. Nadal really repects Federer and they will meet again. MD says on 30/Jan/09
Federer is taller than Nadal and always has; they both aren't 6'1". Nadal's height has been listed wrong for many years, now, and I wonder why when its clearly obvious given that the two are the top of the game so they get compared often. It's obvious Federer is taller. colin says on 29/Jan/09
federer is 6 foot 1- 186 cm and nadal is 6-1- 185 cm, federer and nadal's stats would be accurate, just check their websites too, andy murray is 6'3- 191 cm,juan del potro is 6 foot 6- 198 cm.

Hewitt.. 5'10.5"???? I doubt that. He's a flat 5'10. Check out any picture of him and Andre Agassi (who's a legit 5'11) and you'll see that Agassi is a solid inch taller than hewitt. Even though he's bald. Like I said, Hewitt is 5'10 and Agassi is 5'11. Leung says on 9/Sep/08
Bongo,
Hewitt is only 510.5 thats why he looks like a midget compared to most of the other top ranked male tennis players. F8 says on 9/Sep/08
Naaaah, Murray looks close enough to his billed height of 6'3. The most I'd take of is half an inch. That would make Murray 6'2.5". Now Nadal is definately 6 feet tall. Nothing more. I remember him changing his shoes during Wimbledon. While being filmed we saw him putting insoles in his shoes. Those insoles are about a half inch in thickness. Anonymous says on 8/Sep/08
Bongo, Roddick has flat trainers and Federer has dress shoes on. Jake says on 4/Sep/08
I would've believed it if they had Nadal listed at 6'0. But now that they've increased his height to 6'1, I'm feeling doubtful. Here a picture of Nadal and Federer standing side-by-side after this years French Open 2008 match. It's quite obvious that Federer has more than an inch on Nadal. Click Here Bongo says on 30/Aug/08
OK..what gets to me is the fact that Hewitt is listed as 5'11. Federer has 3 to 3.5 inches on Hewitt in the snap below. And Roddick who's listed as 6'2, looks about the same height as federer who's 6'1. I can see that Roddick's eye level is about an inch above Federer's, but since federer has a more longer head, it seems he's neck in neck with Roddick. Kinda makes up for that 1-inch loss. Click Here Jake says on 30/Aug/08
And again, either Federer is being generous and stating his height as 6'1 (when he's more), or all other players, including Pete Sampras in this pic, are lying about their heights. As seen below, Federer has a good inch on Sampras, who also claims 6'1.
Click Here Jake says on 24/Aug/08
Hmm I wonder...is Beckham really the 5'11.5" he's listed at, after looking at this photo of him and Federer side by side? If he is, Federer looks more like a 6'2.5" guy.

Nah Nadal is still 6'0. He was clearly 1inch shorter than Federer during Wimbledon and at least 2inch shorter than Djokovic in masters series. Now if Nadal uses insoles... Jake says on 1/Aug/08
I stand unmoved on my view. During a brief time-out for break, Nadal was clearly being filmed while adjusting the insoles in his shoes. Like I said, Nadal is anywhere from 6 to 6'0.5" feet tall. Those insoles are just thick enough to close the height gap between him and Federer, which is why he seems as tall as Federer most of the time.
@ace1: Dude, Roddick is clearly an inch taller than Federer. He's 6'2. ace1 says on 14/Jul/08
nadal sometimes looked taller during wimbledon than federer
federer is 6'1 without shoes, nadal 184 i think
fed is 1.85 max
nadal is 1.84
roddick is 184.5 without shoes
djokovic is 1.87 max Jake says on 7/Jul/08
Yesterday's match was by far the BEST showdown between Nadal and Fed. I would say Nadal is 6'0 1/2 while Federer is 6'1. Only cuz I've seen Nadal use insoles in his shoes, while Federer doesn't. Those insoles are just thick enough to close the gap between the 2 of em. That'z why the height difference between them seems non-existent. wtf? says on 6/Jul/08
as tall as nadal i reckon. to all you people who he will always be no.1 correction that will be impossible cause he will eventually be replaced or retire who knows but sure he can hold the pole position a little while longer if not nadal wins today mikez says on 6/Jul/08
somebody: I have no idea how tall Fed is, he could be 6'1. But I know certainly that roddick is 6'0 even as I met him at the Aus open in 07 and im exactly 6'0 and a quarter and we were the same. somebody says on 18/Jun/08
glenn = 172cm ( 5'8 ) . federer 184cm (almost 6'1) height difference = 12 cm . almost 5 inches .. END OF DISCUSSION .. btw id peg roddick to be bout 186cm .almost an inch taller than roger ... uros says on 15/Jun/08
federer is 6'1, a tall guy and to the nadal and djokovic fans roger is and will always be the no.1 tennis player in the world, roger federer is the best MD says on 30/May/08
Correction, Djokovic is exactly 6'-1.5" xyzblast says on 30/May/08
He is clearly about an inch shorter than a true 6'2 Djokovic. So, he is 6'1 at best. lisa says on 24/May/08
roger is 6'1 the same height as rafa nadal and just under djokovic, roger is the best, my favourite player along with andy murray and evgeny korolev. anonymous says on 27/Apr/08
your right viper, he does seem to have about 2 inches on him (if not more) Click Here Heightwatcher says on 27/Apr/08
He is 6 feet 1 = 185cm. He has wide and muscled shouldes, which make him look taller. ray says on 25/Mar/08
federer is 6'1.5(1.86m), nadal is 6'1(1.85m),djokovic is 6'2(1.87m) and murray is 6'3(1.90m)those are a few, federer is a tall guy but he is dwarfed by the huge guys like isner, karlovic,guccione,del potro and querrey. 6ft says on 22/Mar/08
Hewitt is only 176-177 barefoot he looks about 2 inches shorter than 6 ft baghdatis and 3-4 inches shorther than federer
Nadal is probably 1.84 barefoot
Federer is 1.85-186 he's taller than the other players who are 1.85
Roddick is sometimes 1.85 with wrong shoes, sometimes 1.88 and taller than other 6'2 players Anonymous says on 20/Mar/08
6'-0" barefoot, and 6'-1" in tennis shoes, is probably closer to the truth. S4M says on 19/Mar/08
@ Hans: Definately agreeable dude. Federer is a solid 6'1. Nadal is probably around 6'0.5! Click Here You can see Federer's got about half an inch on Nadal. And neither seems to be bent or tilted in this photo, which is why I chose this particular pic. hans says on 14/Mar/08
Federer is definetely taller than Nadal, i think Federer is 6'1,25 and Nadal 6'0,5 S4M says on 10/Mar/08
Those pictures from "anonymous" prove that Federer is 6'1 SOLID! Hewitt is 5'10 barefoot, probably 5'11 with shoes. He has short limbs to be considered 5'11 which is an inch less than 6 feet. Roger looks like he's got a good 3 inches on him, not mention his head size...HUGE! Anonymous says on 9/Mar/08
i met james blake and to me he looks 5'11, at MOST 6'0. but not the 6'1 he's billed at. i've seen pictures of these two together and federer looks to be taller by an inch. i'll say that federer is 6'0.5. Anonymous says on 3/Feb/08

thanx leung for not falling prey to the hype...I agree but I think 5'10.5 is too short for fed...5'11.5 to 6'0. Hewitt 5'11? LMAO and im the moron? Yeah ok Leung says on 30/Jan/08
I have seen Hewitt for real and he is 510.5. But I can understand the 59 estimates because he looks small on tv. Anonymous says on 29/Jan/08
if hewitt is only 5'9 fed is still easily 4 inches taller he's the most legit 6'1 man you'll ever see, no swaying on him 6'1 and change Anonymous says on 28/Jan/08
Other Anonymous, you're overlooking that Lleyton Hewitt is overlisted by perhaps almost 2 inches. He always looks 5'9.5 - 5'10 to me. That puts Fed to me at not quite 6'1. 184-185 to my eye. aerotive says on 24/Jan/08

You are forgetting one thing...Courier is 6ft not 6'1. Nadal is the same height as Courier..a hard 6ft..federer is about 5'11.5..I know some of you are going to be shocked at this, but its true. OutBenchThis says on 20/Jan/08
Rubbish internet_hey! IF you took notice of the various angles available you would have seen Federer at equal height to Courier at some points aswell during the post match. The only time Federer looked taller was from the above angle shot. It's well known that Courier has one of the worst postures around so I still stand by my 184 cm observation. Ofcourse none of us have satisfactory evidence to suggest otherwise, unless I or another poster on here was photographed measuring a celebrity in the morning, midday and late night and was able to take an average from that, which is unlikely to happen, the next best thing is to rely on photographic evidence (usually from Glenn) and his or anothers anecdotal evidence and specualte from there. I say 184 cm, you say 186 cm. internet_hey says on 19/Jan/08
Federer just won his match against Janko Tipsarevic in a match that went for over 4 hours. In the postmatch interview with Jim Courier,Federer is clearly taller than Courier by at least 0.5" and up to a full 1" when he straightened up. Rob's listing of 186cm is accurate, you guys have no solid evidence that Federer is shorter than that. OutBenchThis says on 18/Jan/08
Yeah Rob, it was post match. That's a good point Rob you raise regarding intensive exercise and its effects on an some individuals average lowest height. I took that into consideration with my estimate of 184 cm. Mikez says on 17/Jan/08
Oh cmon Rob thats stretching it (no pun intended). Federer aint 6'1 and has never looked it. Thank you OutBenchThis for posting some logic..the first ive seen on the tennis heights. OutBenchThis says on 16/Jan/08
He was interviewed post-match by Jim Courier who happens to be 6'1" and Courier was definately taller than Federer by about an inch. He could well be 6'.05" (184 cm)
[Editor Rob: if it's post match federer will be at his lowest point, sometimes folk on here say after strenous exercise they can measure small fraction lower than their usual low height?] Rasphone says on 15/Jan/08

Sorry when I say girls arent usually that tall, I mean that people will think anything over 5'11 is automatically 6'2... lol if shes 6'2 shed look enormous , trust me, I have a brother who is a legit 6'2 and theres no way she is. mikez says on 18/Sep/07

federer is more likely 6'1.75, the pics i saw of him next to roddick made me feel federer is closer to 6'2 than he is to 6'1, roddick looks 6'2 but he only has roger by maybe a 1/4 inch Lurker says on 2/Aug/07
when i saw Roddick,i had the impression that he has short arms for his height.i am 6'1 and i have the reach of someone 6'10. trust me,Roddick looked a good portion taller than i am,i have no reason to lie. I mean,look at Federer with 5'8 Glenn,he is at least 4 1/2 inches taller and Roddick is taller than Federer. So,if some of you are saying that Roddick is 6 feet,than that would make Federer 5'11 and as you can see,there is no way that is true. 6'3'' JK says on 2/Aug/07
He always looks 6'2'', He was Taller than Jonathan Ross by about an inch when they were both standing up mike says on 1/Aug/07
Hi Lurker... its not that the tennis players lie about their height, but ATP just doesnt put any research into their "Stats". I think they dont even measure them, or if they do its just in shoes. I agree Roddick looks 6'1 to 6'2..thats why cameras and TV can be deceiving..it was only when I saw him up close (in feb of this year) that I knew he was a bit shorter. Tv can play tricks. Its understandable because people think im 6'1 to 6'2 (no one has ever guessed that im 6'0). There is alot of misconceptions out there...people here "6" and they think big deal... but a true 6 footer (without shoes) will actually look reasonably tall. JanJ says on 1/Aug/07
Roddick always look taller than the most 6'2 guys...fish, haas, verdasco...
he looked 1-1.5 cm smaller than 6'3 mahut

mike,are you downgrading your own height? how long ago did you see Roddick up close? you may have been 6 feet some time,now,if are indeed as tall as Roddick,you are 6'2. i actually saw him last Sunday up close and he was definatly taller that i am. And i am 6'1. Not every tennis player lies about his height,Roddick happens to be one of the few who is listed at his true height. JanJ says on 1/Aug/07
people can grow in iot's early 20's so fish is now 187cm...he was taller than nadal who is just as tall as federer (see link in pictures in my first message)
and marat safin always looks 6'5-6'6 Leung says on 31/Jul/07
I agree that Roddick is more likely to be 62 than 6. Next to big 64 guys like Saffin and Phillipousis (Age of Love!) he is not a lot shorter. Normally if a guy is only 6 then they look small next to 64 guy. mike says on 31/Jul/07
Sorry none of those pictures are even close to proof. This is what happens when ou compare an "alleged" height to an "alleged" height....how do you KNOW Fish is 6'2? ... And ALL those photos do not show the ground...

To me, everyone on the court in TV looks smaller, except Karlovic, but even here I wouldn't say he's 6'10, which he is, but something like 6'7. However, there are so many players listed at 6'2 or more. 6'3'' JK says on 31/Jul/07
Ive been saying Roddick was 6'2'' for a long time now, I even showed pictures for proof, check out my comments from 15/07/07, finally some people like JanJ and MD MD says on 30/Jul/07
Roddick is a sure 6'2". JanJ says on 30/Jul/07
? roddick looks about 3 cm taller than federer. federer has more hair. mike says on 30/Jul/07
Agreed, he has the look of a 5'11 guy.. 5'11.5 That just shows you that in tennis its measured in shoes... 5'11.5 + shoes = 6'1" ..and thats the mystery solved.
About the Roddick thing... either Lurker doesnt know his own height or is a bad judge of height... its not up for debate to me, I was 1 foot away from him when he came over to us to sign autographs and we were the same. This was verified by the person with me and in almost any photo you see. anonymously says on 27/Jul/07
i was watching wimbledon and if i had to guess federer's height right then i would have said somewhere around 5ft 10. i guess it's just b/c all tennis players are usually standing with bent knees during a match but still i would never have guessed he was that tall. Lurker says on 26/Jul/07
concerning Andy Roddick's height,i can say that he is a legit 6'2..not 6'0 like some on here say. i saw Andy the other day up close and i'm 6'1 and he was taller than me. Adam says on 20/Jul/07
Yeah i see. I always see Nadal listed as 182cm whicg is not quite 6' 0" now i can't se ehow he has grown that much? I have been 6' 1 (185cm ish) for the last few years growning gradulally for about 3 years and now im 187cm. At 20 i doubt whether i will reach 188cm but you never know. MD says on 18/Jul/07
Go about halfway down the page, Adam, and look at the comparisons with Nadal. Federer is AT LEAST an inch taller than Nadal all of the time. Adam says on 18/Jul/07
Yeah i looked at a pic from the wimbledon final and Nadal looked taller but he does wair slightly bigger shoes. I think the same barefoot. Leung says on 18/Jul/07
Federer has an inch on Nadal.
My estimates are 60.5 for Nadal and 61.5 for Federer. MD says on 17/Jul/07
It's not a rumor. Nadal is listed at 6'1", though it's painfully clear that he is not, even if he has grown in the last few years. weekly says on 17/Jul/07
" 6'3'' JK: How the heck do you know if he is on his tiptoes?" Just looked at the picture, it's obvious. When comparing Federer and Sampras, I honestly don't believe Pete was ever 6'1, maybe in shoes, so Federer has to appear always taller than him.
Adam, I believe that "rumour", it shouldn't be actually difficult to judge these two guys, because they're playing a lot against eachother nowadays. I'm starting to have a strange feelings that I'm the only one who thinks Nadal is taller by 1 cm (or at least the same). It really appears that way to me. Maybe Nadal's footwear gives him more height than Federer's do? Adam says on 17/Jul/07
Does anyone belive in the Nadal 6' 1" rumour? I can't see it myself! I believe he is half an inch shorter maybe more than Federer. I would say 183cm for Nadal. 6'3'' JK says on 15/Jul/07
How the heck do you know if he is on his tiptoes? i just gave you solid proof with that picture that he is over 6'0'', Roddick was also a bit taller than Jonathan Ross mike says on 15/Jul/07
One of the worst comments ive ever read... firstly about that pic... hes on his tip toes...thats a well known fact for some time...and sharapova isnt a legit 6'2..no way.. its like people dont even read the comments on here... hes 6'0, not 6'3. 6'3'' JK says on 15/Jul/07
Roddick was taller than Jonathan Ross on his show, so he probably is 6'2'' -6'3'', and he is taller than Sharapova who is a legit 6'2'' Click Here Adam says on 14/Jul/07
Again i feel that the LTA measure players in tennis shoes and if you look at Roddick's footwear they are bigger and more chunky than the other players especially Federer who wears a more elegant shoe. Check out Andy's Babolat shoes i bet they give him a good inch and a half maybe more. Mike says on 13/Jul/07
You know the funny thing about height is that almost 95% of people think Im taller than what I really am (I get 6'1 + most of the time, sometimes even 6'2), so I can easily see how people confuse guys like Roddick and Federer as 6'2. Almost no one thinks im 6'0 and no one ever thinks im less. Just saying. Mike says on 13/Jul/07
I should also note I am exactly 6'0.25 without shoes (I have no reason to lie) and my dad even said I was a tiny bit taller than Roddick but gave him 6'0. I felt the same as him. I knew instantly when I saw him practicing on a court before I went right up to him that he wasnt going to be 6'2 , even though I thought on TV he appears taller. Mike says on 13/Jul/07
To Glen: Im not convinced thats a 5' difference in that pic. That hat obscures the top of his head as well. I will say that I have never seen RF in person, but I have met Andy Roddick in person and can verify (as well as someone else with me who saw) that he is 6'0 even. So if all the stats say he is taller than nadal and federer, someone must be lying. Federer could be 6'1, but that means hes taller than Roddick. Adam says on 13/Jul/07
I think Federer is more like 6' 1.5". I watched a match of him playing Pete Sampras and he was about half an inch taller. Same goes for TimHenman. Both Tim and Pete are 6' 1". Arjun says on 12/Jul/07
Karlovic is very tall (not huge though, he looks like a stretched-out version of the 5'8" Arnaud Clement, rather than a blown-up version). Definitely around 6'10" compared to Clement - he's below his shoulders. I'm what I am says on 12/Jul/07
How could you recognize the different inches between Roger Federer and Andy Roddick or Rafael Nadal. I'm a fan of tennis; I met them all; their height are the same - 6'1. No way, Roger's height is similar to mine (6'3 as somebody say).
Thank Rob for a nice pic Ivo Karlovic vs Arnaud Clιment. But I don't understand;as my feeling, I don't see that this crazy stickleback is shortest(
I talk about Arnauld,he's very unstable...unbelievable nice and unbelievable aggressive, too); I think, he's still a bit taller than his buddy Sιbastien Grosjean. I also met another huge player, his name is Alexander Popp. I really wonder "Is Ivo actually the tallest player?" Rick says on 12/Jul/07
Remenber I put a lot of pics where we can saw Federer is exactly the same height of Venus Williams. He's around 185 cms ( not more). Nadal looks 184 cms for me. Leung says on 11/Jul/07
My observation is that Federer is about 3cm taller than Nadal.
Federer and Roddick are very similar in height MD says on 11/Jul/07
Nadal is significantly more than just 1 cm shorter than Federer Tex89 says on 11/Jul/07
The real heights(for me) are:
Federer: 186 cm (check his official site)
Nadal: 185 cm
Roddick: 187-188(i'd like to know...) Leung says on 10/Jul/07
I think Federer could be taller than 61. Prior to his Wimbledon final he hung out with Goran Ivanisevic for warm up session. Next to 64 Ivanisevic he only looked about 2 shorter.
Next to big 64 players like Marat Safin and Mark Philippousis, Federer does not look much shorter. I think he looks 61.5 at least. tubbs says on 10/Jul/07
Federer looks taller than 6'1", BBC showed highlights from his 2001 win against Sampras last week, and Roger had atleast 1 inch on Sampras when they stood side by side. He also looked like he had an inch on Nadal, and on Saturday when he was interviewed with Pierce Brosnan,who seems atleast 6'1.5, he looked to be taller than him. He looks around the 6'2" mark. MD says on 9/Jul/07
No, Federer has always looked like one of the only few in the sport billed at the correct height. It's really crazy because a bunch of the top players are also billed at 6'0" and 6'1", but they all look different in height. lol
Hewitt, though, isn't anything over 5'10", and that's being generous. |
