Thanks mister, he's my favourite tennis player, just great to watch.
mister says on 6/Feb/12
Jaek, Wawrinka is close to listed height. I saw him at IW and he is very close to the 6'(1.83) he is listes as. His weight on the other hand, I disagree. He is at least 195. He is definatly not 179 anymore. He is build like a lumberjack, and very broad and muscled.
SAK says on 6/Feb/12
@Mr-KILLER-SHRIMP, good pics.

I stick by Federer being at least 185cm, not sure on Sampras I never watched tennis when he was around.
John says on 2/Feb/12
Federer is 6'1 but not much more...not positive about the extra quarter of an inch...Nadal is 1/2 inch shorter than Federer and a little over an inch shorter than Djokovic.

The players are all measured, usually barefoot but not always. (It should be apparent who isn't since tennis shoes usually add about an inch). Also there are cases where the measurement is clearly not accurate, disregarding whether they were measured barefoot or not. So the measurements while a good guide are not verbatim.

sampras is a slouch, he is 1.85 allright.
jake, 1.82 m- 1.83 m- 1.84 m says on 31/Jan/12
Nadal is likely at least an inch and a half taller than Agassi.

Nadal: 183.5 cm- 184 cm
Sampras: 183 cm
Federer: 185-186 cm
mister says on 30/Jan/12
Shrimp, AND you gotta remember that Sampras is a notorious sloucher and he looks to be "at ease" whilst Fed appears to be at full height. I would go with a hefty 6' for Fed, but no more.
Mr-KILLER-SHRIMP says on 30/Jan/12
SAK says on 28/Jan/12
Sampras is also wearing black shoes which will add extra height then Federers sports trainers.

I agree Sampras is 182cm, but Federer is 185cm.

They look pretty close in height to me. If Sampras is 182, I could buy Federer at 184, but I think 185 is pushing it. He's definitely lower than his 186 listing.
mister says on 29/Jan/12
Yeh Jake, I think some are measured in shoes and others barefoot. I remember Mcenroe saying that he had hit with David Ferrer. The other commentator said Ferrer is a smaller guy at 5'9, and Mac laughed and said "barely" 5'9.
jake, 1.82 m- 1.83 m- 1.84 m says on 28/Jan/12
That's interesting mister, I'd say a lot of tennis players' heights are embellished slightly. I've stood next to No. 41 in the world Philipp Kohlschreiber and he appeared 176- 177 cm max and is listed 5" 10.
SAK says on 28/Jan/12
Mr-KILLER-SHRIMP says on 24/Jan/12
I'm not buying 186cm for Federer either. He's only a fraction taller than Sampras.
Sampras looks 5'11.75"/182cm MAX next to 5'11" McEnroe in HULKO's pictures.

I agree Sampras is 182cm, but Federer is 185cm.
Ras says on 26/Jan/12
Federer may be 6'0.75". Nadal I think is 5'11.5".
mister says on 26/Jan/12
Jake, I once got David Nalbandian's autograph at the Legg Mason and I was surprised how short he was. I got on the internet and he was listed at 5'11, but I can tell you he maybe is 5'10 with help.
richard says on 26/Jan/12
he is 185cm all the sites and the player information before tennis matches say he is, 185cm is a fraction under 6ft 1 6'0.75
jake, 1.82 m- 1.83 m- 1.84 m says on 25/Jan/12
Well Gasquet looks no more than 5" 11.5 (182 cm) in that picture with Federer but surely he'd be at least 6" 0. 182 cm max for Sampras? I doubt that, he may not be the 1.85 m he gets listed at but he's probably about that in the morning. 6" 0.25 maybe for Sampras?
Mr-KILLER-SHRIMP says on 24/Jan/12
Ivan is correct, I'm not buying 186cm for Federer either. He's only a fraction taller than Sampras:

gasquet at 6'1? Click Here
ivan says on 24/Jan/12
I would say Fed is 184 cm, i donīt buy him being 186cm......Del Potro is no less than 2 meters, maybe 2 meters and 2 or 3 cms. He is just a Giant and if you compare Federer to Delpo at the Open when Delpo beat Roger in 2009 i see Delpo being 17 or 18 cms taller than Roger, 184cm for Roger is right on spot....
Silent d says on 23/Jan/12
Jim courier is listed as 182cm on a certain page starting with w. He looks 6 foot 2. Maybe lifts. Federer is 186cm. Mardy fish is definitely taller than andy roddick. If roddick is 6 foot 2 than mardy is 189cm.

He appeared slightly taller than Jim Courier who is listed 185 cm. I agree about 1.81 m for Simon, Richard Gasquet is listed as 6" 1 these days anyway is probably close to that. 11.
Shaun says on 20/Jan/12
Looks this height next to Prince William.
steven says on 19/Jan/12
he does't look quite 186cm. much like a 185cm 6'0.75 guy
mister says on 15/Jan/12
I can't attest to fish's feight but I have seen Fed practicing and he is close to listed if not slightly higher.
Silent d says on 15/Jan/12
Federer is definitely taller than nadal. 186cm. Pretty close to height with 188cm sharapova. I don't believe simon is 6 foot. I remember when versed gasquet and they said they are both listed at 6 foot and gasquet is clearly taller. Simon 181cm and gasquet 184cm. I thought tsonga was 189cm but he is only 188cm. He looks big.
jake, 1.82 m/ 1.83 m says on 14/Jan/12
What about former American player Jim Courier? Same height as Sampras? To me he seems 6ft 1in.
jake, 1.82 m/ 1.83 m says on 13/Jan/12
Actually Mardy Fish is listed as 187 cm on his official website so he could be more a weak 6" 2 in actuality.
mister says on 6/Jan/12
It seems the "idel" height for tennis players on the ATP is 6'1. Federer, Sampras were all 6'1. Nadal is not that tall, I saw him listed as 6' on a Barcelona tournament profile in 2005. I tried to check it but it had been upgraded to 6'1. I don't really think height is as big of a deal as people make it out to be in tennis. You can be really tall and have a great serve but if the other guy gets the ball back your chances of winning a baseline rally are less. If your shorter you are quicker and have to rely more on breaking serve because your serve usually isn't a weopan. The general thought is 6'1 is the perfect height for a good serve and movement. IDK?
Chris says on 4/Jan/12
@mister. Ferrer looks solid average guy, I think 5'9 fits better to him than 5'8, of course he's short to be a tennis player because the average is around 5'11-6ft.

@Jake. Simon is a skinny 5'11 same as Alexandr Dolgopolov (ukrainian player). Both were listed at 5'11 till last year when they were upgraded to 6ft (Dolgopolov grew an inch at 23 years old and Simon at 27!) I don't believe it. Many people said that back to 2005 when Nadal was 19 he was listed 6' even and the week after he won Roland Garros he was changed into 6'1.
mister says on 4/Jan/12
Case in point. Click Here
mister says on 4/Jan/12
Jake, Richard Gasquet is the same way. He is listed as 1.85m but if you see him stand next to a 1.84ish Nadal or Federer he is definatly not 1.85. Players often are measure with and without shoes. Federer is around 1.87 in shoes as I have seen him practicing up close. Other pros just lie about their height? Every hear of the celebrity 3 inch rule?
jake, 1.82 m- 1.83 m says on 3/Jan/12
What about French player Gilles Simon? He get's listed as either 6ft (1.83 m) or 5ft 11in (1.80 m). I'd estimate 5"11.25 (181 cm) for him. Tsonga looks about 6ft 2in.
mister says on 29/Dec/11
Chris, I agree with you except that I heard Mcenroe commentating a Ferrer match at wimbledon and his partner said something about Ferrer being 5'8 and Mcenroe said that he had hit with him and that he was "barely" 5'8.

My guesses:

Roger Federer: 6'1.25 (186)
Novak Djokovic: 6'1.5 (187)
Rafael Nadal: 6'0.5 (184)
Andy Murray: 6'3 (191)
David Ferrer: 5'9 (175)
Tomas Berdych: 6'4.75 (195)
Robin Soderling: 6'4 (193)
Fernando Verdasco: 6'1.25 (186)
Nikolay Davydenko: 5'10 (178)
Juan Martin Del Potro: 6'6.25 (199)
Andy Roddick: 6'2 (188)
Mardy Fish: 6'2.5 (189)
Jo-Wilfried Tsonga: 6'2 (188)

What do you think?
jake, 1.82 m- 1.83 m says on 15/Dec/11
Murray looks as if he has an easy 6 inches on Ferrer there, maybe 6ft 2.75in for Murray and 5ft 8.75in for Ferrer.
Tom101 says on 12/Dec/11
roger is defo 6.1",nadal 6.0" max. met them both in london,feds is taller.
mister says on 3/Dec/11
Yeh nadal is definatly not 6-1. I remember Sampras was listed as 5-11 and then suddenly went to 6-0, or 6-1 after he won the US Open.
SAK says on 3/Dec/11
Sorry the link didn't work properly. It's the 4th pic when you scroll down. All 8 players are standing in a line and wearing similar shoes.

From this photo this what i gather:

Federer - 186cm/6ft1
Nadal - 184cm/6ft0.5
Djokovic - 186cm or 187cm (6ft1-6ft1.5)
Murray - 189cm/6ft2.5
Roddick - 188cm/6ft2
Soderling 190cm-191cm/6ft3
Berdych - 194-195cm (strong 6ft4)
Ferrer - 174-175cm (V.High 5ft8)
Harry says on 29/Nov/11
I met with Federer in a tournament and im 6ft 2.25(189 cms),same that Murray where i have pic with him and we are same height and more or less same height shoes tennis.
Federer is only 1 inches smaller that me, so yes 6ft 1.25 or 186 cms is right.
Perhaps 6ft 1.5 or 187 cms is possible too.
I met with Nadal and really Nadal is tall, for me 185 cms 6ft 1, a few less that Federer.

This whole thing about Federer and Nadal being the same height and within a kg of each other in weight is b.s. Federer is definatly taller even on a bad day, and Nadal weighs more than listed. Federer's weight on the ATP website is his current weight. Nadal's is his weight when he was just starting on tour.
LAN Jiao says on 16/Nov/11
Yes he is 186cm and guess he weight between 83-86kg.
fred says on 10/Nov/11
Federer is not a guy to exaggerate his height. When he says 186 cm on his official website I believe it and I can confirm it as well after having sized up to him in Indian wells. Some guys like Gasquet grossly exaggerate and some only exaggerate their height minimally like Nadal. But I am pretty sure Federer is smack down to the height he claims which is 6 foot 1.25 inches tall.
LAN Jiao says on 2/Nov/11
jack , his not thin but a fit in build guy. probably weigh 180-190.
LAN Jiao says on 30/Oct/11
Roger Federer makes "6'2" maria sharapova looks like legit 6'0. lol..

rob, did Roger Federer really claim 6'1.25 ?
Pete says on 29/Oct/11
The only way we can tell for sure is if we compare the other guys. Djokovic and Federer have a lot of pictures together, where they appear about the same height. Djokovic was on a Conan Obrien show, and he appears the same height as Conan, who is 6'4 ; That being said, I think Djokovic is definitely good 6'2 or more and thus Federer has to be over 6'1 ;
fred says on 26/Oct/11
all legit sites on Federer have listed as a shade over 6 foot 1, as in 6 foot 1.25 inches exactly. This I can testify to as I stood next to him at Indian Wells and I am the same height. He also looks broader in real life that you would think given that he looks so thin on TV.
mister says on 9/Oct/11
federer is definatly not under 6feet1inch...anybody who says he is below that is crazy...if Anything he is alittle taller
Anon says on 5/Oct/11
I agree that Nadal is definately not a full 6'1. every website on the net except one has him at this height, but in reality he is more 183 - 184. I think he is very likely 6'0 as an evening height and the only other thing i can suggest is that he may be 184 due to stretching exercises that many athletes perform. in addition to him having a very strong back this may result in him losing less height due to more stress distributed through his back muscles and less compression of the intervertebral discs in the spine. This may also create a straighter spine. John Mcenroe claims spinal stretching exercises resulted in him gaining height but i'm not convinced this truly works, although it does at least seem plausible. However you wouldn't realistically gain more than 1cm though.
Bitch167 says on 23/Sep/11
Hey , i really need to know how was nadal's and federr heights when they were 18-19 year old !
Anyone could help me please ? i need a proof too ( website old article and ****s like that .. ) :p
thx in advance !
mister says on 22/Sep/11
yes, see i've seen him listed as 6' on barcelona tournament website. I think nadal is 6' on the dot.
ricky says on 20/Sep/11
Nadal, only 6'0" ???
Click Here
mister says on 20/Sep/11
Can we all at least agree that nadal is not the 6'1 he is listed? obviously he is shorter than Fed and having stood near Fed, his height isn't inflated at all. as said Im 6'.75 and he was clearly taller. Nadal is clearly shorter than fed by at least an inch...
jake, 1.82 m says on 17/Sep/11
Germany's highest ranked player Philipp Kohlscreiber is listed as 5ft10, but I've stood right next to him at the 2010 Australian Open and he's 5ft9-5ft9.25. There's no doubt some players' listings are rounded up by a bit.
sylinher says on 17/Sep/11
i dont know why everybody consider djokovic so tall...i belive that botch federer djokovic and nadal have pretty much smilar heights...of course nole is taller but no for much

so i think....nole 1.87 roger 1.86 nadal 1.84
SAK says on 15/Sep/11
Federer - 186cm
Nadal - 182cm
Djokovic - 187cm
Murray - 189cm
Fish - 188cm
Roddick - 187cm
mister says on 14/Sep/11
I saw federee this year at Indian Wells after practice and I was literally 3 feet from him. Only a fence seperated us and I am (just recently measured by doctor) 6'.75 barefoot and he was at LEAST 2 inches taller than I am. We both had tennis shoes so I figure if someone says 6' 2 inches for him it isnt that far off the mark
Bon_ says on 13/Sep/11
I agree MT, but I think Murray is nothing over 6'2 and Djokovic probably just a good 6'1.
MT says on 5/Sep/11
Nadal: 5'11 1/2-3/4
Federer: 6'0 1/4-1/2
Roddick: 6'0 3/4-6'1"
Djokovic: 6'3
Murray: 6'2 3/4
Fish: 6'2"

Fish is 6'2"...Roddick is absolutely not 6'2" and Nadal is at best 6'0, but more like 5'11.5 with good posture

all heights are what they are at the end of the day.
Fred says on 28/Aug/11
Met federer twice and he is a legit 6-1. He appears tall but not very tall. I'm 6-1 myself and we were eye to eye. He might well be a quarter inch taller than 6-1 as he often gets credited for but I couldn't tell this unless he were measured in front of me. One thing that struck me when I met him was his wings span. It seemed he has arms for a frame of someone who might be
6-3 or 6-4. This I guess plays hugely into his favor.
anon says on 14/Aug/11
Putting Fish at 186 is very wrong. Fish has always looked a very strong 6'2'', if you didn't know he was 6'2'' I'd bet a lot of people would think he's around 6'4'', he just looks a lot taller and always has, even when he was carrying 30lbs more.
jake says on 12/Aug/11
Nadal: 184 cm
Federer: 185-186 cm
Roddick: 188 cm
Djokovic: 187-188 cm
Murray: 190 cm
Ferrer: 174-175 cm
Tomic: 194 cm
Fish: 186 cm

Nadal: 184cm
Djokovic: 187cm
Sharapova: 187cm
Shaun says on 4/Jul/11
Like basketball their is a discrepancy between those measured barefoot and those in sneakers and those who round up or down but I'm pretty sure these players are measured by the LTA in the way the NBA also measures players.
Shaun says on 4/Jul/11
[Editor Rob: all I'm saying is that I don't think they measure players and what a player says can differ from what they are billed at...I'm not even talking about Agassi. 5ft 8 is indeed an unbelievable estimate for him.]

Isn't it compulsory that players undergo a medical by the Lawn Tennis Association and have their height and weight taken for their stats?? How else would the LTA list them and settle on a formal height for them? Because one player says "I'm 6'1" and 187 pounds? I don't believe that, sorry Rob, in a professional sport such as tennis I believe they are at least measured by their doctors.
[Editor Rob: well they could be measured and some discrepancies result because of a few mismeasurements or measured in sneakers.]
Shaun says on 3/Jul/11
Rafa Nadal does not look 6'1" though. Short legs. He does look more 5'11". In reality he's probably 6'0.5" even if he doesn't look it.
Shaun says on 3/Jul/11
There is inconsistency in tennis, basketball and other sports with listed heights. They most likely measure a lot in sneakers but some like Federer seem to be listed as barefoot but they do measure them all the same. In Spadea's case, he was likely measured 5'11.5" in sneakers and was rounded up. My point Rob is that he WAS measured.
Shaun says on 3/Jul/11
[Editor Rob says: a good example of big discrepancy was Vincent Spadea. He was listed 6ft by tennis associations (and still is) but he said he was 5ft 10.5 in an interview. Michael Chang got listed 5ft 9 and he said he was 5ft 9 in trainers.]

So you think Andre Agassi is 5'7"? Bull****. He was listed at 5'11" and is probably 5'10", no lower. The "big discrepancy" is never likely to be more than 1.5" sorry Rob.
[Editor Rob: all I'm saying is that I don't think they measure players and what a player says can differ from what they are billed at...I'm not even talking about Agassi. 5ft 8 is indeed an unbelievable estimate for him.]
Bon_ says on 2/Jul/11
Good examples Rob. I think cases like Spadea's are very often on Tour. Particularly with huge stars who want to gain more 'respect'.
Shaun - Agassi has admitted being 5'7 in his late teens
Shaun says on 1/Jul/11
Bon_ says on 27/May/11 Agassi a weak 5'8? WTF? More like weak 5'11

Bon_ says on 27/May/11
lol Nadal at 6'1, he's 182 cm max, more likely 181, and Federer is 183, 184 maxx

Are you thick as s**t or something? You do realise that these players are actually measured?
[Editor Rob: a good example of big discrepancy was Vincent Spadea. He was listed 6ft by tennis associations (and still is) but he said he was 5ft 10.5 in an interview. Michael Chang got listed 5ft 9 and he said he was 5ft 9 in trainers.]

What's the matter Shaun, you said yourself that Sampras looks 6' tops, now suddenly you are shocked to hear that he is 5'11 range?
Sampras 5'11.25 in my opinion

Sampras is 5'11 range, he was listed at 5'11.5 before, I'd say he's 181 cm like Nadal
Federer a little taller at strong 6'
really shows being too tall is not perfect for tennis, around 6' is where the most succesful players are but they get 6'1 listings to get more 'respect' from the public
GPDRF says on 2/Jun/11
I think roger is almost 6'1.25'(1.86m)based on his own website and the reallity!!!..novak djokovic is between 187-188cm
rafael nadal is not a clear 6'1"...somthing between 183-184(you can see some photos with iker casillas) who is 182.2cm based on real madrid website...pete sampras also looks like 183,4cm...and and what the hell!!!!!!andy murray is not 1.91m!!!!he is 188-189cm and for roben soderling aswell he is not 1.93...he is 191cm i think...and neither sharapova is 1.88m nor anna ivanovic is 1.86!!!!they are used to lie about their heights
germanjorg says on 29/May/11
Federer is NOT more than 10cm taller than Del Piero so he can Not be taller than 183cm and Nadal is clearly shorter than Robert Pires so Nadal is NOT taller than 180cm but guys keep on dreaming
Fred says on 27/May/11
Like I said I met Federer and he was the same height as me standing eye to eye and we are both 6 foot 1 roughly. Just because Federer looks like 188 or 189 cm does not mean anything unless you actually measure up against him or measure his height directly. A lot of people look taller than they really are or vice versa so Caracalla your comment is totally useless since it is based on how you think Federer looks like to you. Who care's about how he looks like to you!
Bon_ says on 27/May/11
lol Nadal at 6'1, he's 182 cm max, more likely 181, and Federer is 183, 184 maxx
Caracalla says on 21/May/11
Nadal looks 184cm not less but not more.. Federer looked surprisingly tall to me, more like 188cm or even 189cm but not less than 187cm for sure...
Ali says on 13/May/11
I really think Federer is 183/184 max.
Nadal 181-182max.

Fed isn't under 185cm IMO.

Nadal is closer to 6'0" than 6'1" since he's clearly shorter than Fed:

Anon says on 24/Apr/11
Federer looks close to 186cm. Not less than 185. To me Nadal looks anywhere from 182 to 184cm. Personally i think his actual minimum height may be 182cm however 183cm in truth is more likely. As far as i'm concerned he is 6ft no more, no less. It's important to remember that height isn't completely fixed anyway as everyone loses a couple of cm's from morning to evening ..possibly even a bit more (the more pressure exerted on your spine the more height you lose). Your height is the average of your maximum and minimum heights. But I like to go by the rule of taking lowest height (evening height) as true height.

Federer does look 186cm...Nasal looks 184cm, not quite 6"1. Andy Murray isn't quite the 6"3(191cm) he gets listed at. But near it. probably 6"2.25 or 6"2.5. Roddick looks 6"2 on the dot or at worst 187cm, but 188cm is more accurate.

I doubt Maria Sharapova is 6"2(188cm)...more like 185-186cm
Fred says on 10/Apr/11
pretty hard to tell the difference from 185 and 186 cm unless you measure it accurately. federer is a solid 6 foot 1 lets put it that way.
adams1818 says on 9/Apr/11
definitely 185cm for him, 186 is out of question

However, there are players who do not lie much about their height. My friend met and took picture with Mario Ančić(6'5 listed) and Ančić clearly had my 6'2 friend by 2-3 inches.
Bon_ says on 31/Mar/11
it wouldn't hurt if you also provided some photos

Federer is 6' max, maybe 184 cm pushing it, Nadal 5'11 range definitively
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
If your making such claims then prove it with photos.

I watch tennis regularly and I am dead certain that Federer is a solid 6ft1/186cm and Nadal is strong 6ft0/184cm.

Saw Federer and Nadal practicing at Indian Wells this year, and stood next to both of them at different occasions. I'm a shade over 6 foot 1 (186 cm) and I would say that I was comfortably taller than Nadal and same height as Federer. Nadal is not 6 foot 1 by my estimation but more like 6 to maybe 6 foot and a quarter inch at best. Federer is the same height he is listed at.
Jake T. says on 18/Mar/11
This is correct. Nadal looks 2 cm shorter than Roger most of the time and also Federer is close in height with Roddick.
Gred says on 17/Mar/11
so what?
you are not saying anything...
Verdasco is next to del Potro who is 1.98...Verdaco looks 10 cm shorter...which fix...anyway...Verdasco will never be shorter than Federer..that is clear
so like i said...Verdasco 1.88 Federer 1.86

Come...Verdasco..short?
There is a photo with the 8 players of the world tour final
Verdasco looks cleary taller than Federer
Verdaso 1 88
Federer 184 1 85

That is a terrible picture to judge height from, Verdasco looks like he is closer to the camera, solderling is about 6'4 the guy on the far right, which means hes taller than everyone apart from del potro but it doesnt appear like it in that photo, its pretty obvious this photo is flawed for height judging purposes.

Djokovic is nowhere near 6'3, and Federer is 6' flat topsy tops in reality. So, do the math...
Moke says on 25/Feb/11
wow, Djokovic looks Federer's height. Thought he was 6'3...
Bob says on 5/Feb/11
I saw the check presentation recently. Roger is about 2 inches taller than Rafael.

Guys, a serious question.

Roger's 186cm is based on what? ATP
lists him at 185cm.

To be honest I think many tennis players
are shorter than their ATP height.

I think Federer might be 183-184cm.
186-187cm in shoes.

Nadal 182-183cm.
Roddick also 183-184cm
Bon says on 9/Jan/11
I clearly remember Sampras listed at 5'11.5 in the past.
Shaun says on 8/Jan/11
Pete Sampras looks 6' tops.
Shaun says on 8/Jan/11
Federer actually looks about an inch taller than Pete Sampras..
Bon says on 8/Jan/11
fuzzblaster - yes, it's the ideal listing heoght, but in reality most of them that are listed at 6'1 are in the 5'11 - 6' range...at best.
fuzzblaster says on 6/Jan/11
Obviously a super agile 6'1". Since the Sampras days this seems like the ideal height for tennis at least for the modern game.
jake says on 3/Jan/11
I agree with all of SAK's listings except Djokovich who I think is a full 6' 2".
Bon says on 4/Dec/10
Nadal is 6' flat MAX in my opinion. Actually, many tennis heights listings seem blatantly suspicious to me, maybe I'll have to change my opinions drastcally.
Someone mentions agassi being listed 1.83(reality 1.78), I would also add Sampras who i remember listed at 5'11.5 in the 90's(probably his real height), then he suddenly 'grew' to 6ft1.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 2/Dec/10
Nadal is 6"0.5 or 184cm

Federer always looked a bit taller so he's 185-186cm. This height's about right
SAK says on 25/Nov/10
Nadal 184cm
Federer 186cm
Murray 190cm
Djokovic 187cm
Roddick 188cm
Efi A says on 24/Nov/10
I think this height is right, Federer surely is 186 maybe 187
about Rafa 183-184 is right about him.
Bon says on 4/Nov/10
Federer - strong 6'1
Nadal 6'0.25
Djokovic 6ft 1.5
Sampras 6 ft 0.5
