(Editor Update: We’re now over at Tennis Now, where we are still pondering who would be in our list of HOATs. Might need to make room for Grigor Dimitrov. Visit us at Tennis Now.)
Forget the GOATs for a sec and let’s talk about the HOATs.
My top 5, in no particular order (to each his own, folks): Hewitt, Haas, Safin, Rafter, and Clement. Runners-up: Davydenko, Andy Murray, and Youzhny.
Who’s on your list? Tell us!

2. Paul Henri Mathieu
3. Novak Djokovic
4. Emilio Sanchez
5. Patrick Rafter
August 9, 2007 at 6:23 am |
Haven’t you seen Tomas Berdych?! He is so hot!!! And is play is the best as well. Look it up! Tomas Berdych is the hottest, no one can compete!
August 11, 2007 at 6:30 am |
1. Janko Tipsarevic. Something about a boy with tats, piercings, geeky glasses and bulging biceps that reads Russian literature and German philosophy. Okay. Even without that, he’s gorgeous.
2. Rafael Nadal. Killer body. Killer smile. The best ass I have ever seen. I don’t even like asses.
3. Hernan Gumy. Safin’s new coach. Google him. He’s beautiful.
4. Marat Safin. I’m sure it’s not doing his confidence much good to be eclipsed in hotness by his own coach.
5. Feliciano Lopez. Almost too pretty to be hot. And his junk is always falling out of the jockstrap. But those eyes….
January 12, 2012 at 8:38 am |
Fully agree.
Janko – he can carry off the boy-next-door image as well as the tennis hunk with the chiselled look, glares and tats and an incredible knowledge of Russian literature mixed with humility.
And Roger Federer – Greek God personified, even if less chiselled now then before.
August 14, 2007 at 2:56 am |
Marat Safin is the hottest male on the planet!
August 16, 2007 at 5:25 pm |
Top 5?
1. Marat Safin speaking Russian
2. Marat Safin speaking Spanish
3. Marat Safin speaking English
4. Marat Safin breaking racquets
5. Marat Safin off the court, after a shower, in a white tee, board shorts, and flip flips. With sunglasses perched on his head. Any language will do.
And, frankly, it’s about 50/50 looks & personality!

September 14, 2007 at 4:43 pm |
no E lets leave the women alone; NAMAN, don’t ruin the imagination. ahahaha
September 14, 2007 at 11:01 pm |
yeah, leave the girls alone – they’ve been objectified enough… let’s not set the female movement back 20 years!
September 16, 2007 at 7:52 am |
marat safin (drop dead gorgeous)
janko tipsarevic
tommy haas
andy roddick
novak djokovic
September 16, 2007 at 10:44 am |
Not to objectify him, disrespect him, inadvertently denigrate his considerable skill as a tennis player or anything at all like that, but….just one glimpse of Janko Tipsarevic is enough to make my heart skip a beat….I think it’s the Russian literature that does it for me. 🙂 (well, that and those big soulful eyes.) Seriously, how often do you find a top-class athlete who’s also such an intellectual?
Marat Safin is pretty hot as well, and Novak Djokovic has to be on the list just for his adorable sweetness and goofy impressions!
September 18, 2007 at 10:31 pm |
novak djokovic is dreamy
September 19, 2007 at 6:14 am |
From my viewfinder…strictly looks only
1. Marat Safin(I didn’t want to be on the bandwagaon, but having seen him in person I just can’t dispute this. :p)
2. Rafael Nadal
3. Roger Federer – my favorite hottie!
4. Patrick Rafter
5. James Blake
Cuteness Award goes to the giant with a baby face: John Isner!
September 19, 2007 at 12:54 pm |
1.-L Hewitt
2.-N Djokovic
3.-JC Ferrero
4.-G Gaudio
5.-F Gonzalez
Haas and roddick arent so bad either =*
September 25, 2007 at 11:59 pm |
1) Marat Safin (undoubtedly the most beautiful tennis player ever walked the earth)
2) Richard Gasquet (just adorable… the French accent doesn’t hurt)
3) Juan Monaco (I upgraded Gaston for Juan)
4) Tommy Robredo (Tommy trumps Feliciano any time!)
&
5) Alexander Waske (yup. you heard it here first)
Is anyone tallying up votes? Can there an honorable mentions list. Mr. Congeniality?
October 2, 2007 at 5:28 pm |
a pretty good taste, girls (and boys), you know ’em all! 🙂
but you’ve forgotten one really cool dude! THOMAS ENQVIST! 😉
October 9, 2007 at 8:44 pm |
what about David Ferrer?! i cannot believe he is not on any list yet!
1. David Ferrer
2. Bjorn Borg – is that weird?
3. Rafa Nadal
4. Feliciano Lopez
5. Michael Chang – again – is that weird?
October 10, 2007 at 1:14 am |
whew nice list..just Safin, Gasquet and Nadal for me..haha
October 11, 2007 at 3:26 pm |
watch this video montage…i think all of them are in it. but heres my top 5
1 djokovic
2 gasquet
3 safin
4 haas
5 nadal
these are my faves but evreyone in here is gorgeus!!!
i dont know how to do the clicky thing…so just copy and paste it or go to youtube.com and look up “Hot tennis players: Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, Safin. etc” thats the exact title.
October 22, 2007 at 1:42 am |
1. Verdasco
2. Ferrer
3. Blake
4. Lopez
5. Tursunov
I don’t understand all this Nadal love. Sure, he’s got the body, but the face and the mannerisms just ruin it all…..I have never understood why he doesn’t just wear looser pants.
To each his/her own, I guess…
October 22, 2007 at 10:20 pm |
fav topic…
james blake
andy roddick
marat safin
roger federer
pat rafter….or for a current guy tommy haas
October 22, 2007 at 10:59 pm |
after seein more recent pics of feliciano lopez i think im replacing haas with lopez…so its
1.djokovic( without the ugly goatee)
2.gasquet
3.safin
4.lopez
5.nadal (although he might be off this list soon…)
October 27, 2007 at 2:49 pm |
Wow, all those different lists are fascinating!
Interestingly, folks like Safin and Haas just don’t do it for me. Gotta look up that Tipsarevic guy though.
Here’s my top 5:
1. Rafa Nadal – WHAT A BODY. OH. MY. GOD. Also, gotta love the boyish smile.
2. Nole Djokovic – mainly, it’s the charisma and those eyes (green fading into brown – ever noticed?)
3. Fernando Gonzalez – just pretty.
4. David Ferrer – he looks kinda weird on-court, but totally gorgeous off-court.
5. David Nalbandian – not the typical hottie, but he’s got something… I also like his physique.
No. 1 and 2 are WAY ahead though.
November 5, 2007 at 1:02 pm |
There’s only one man who does it for me tennis wise and it’s gotta be the Federer. There’s something incredibly sexy about that man, he seems like a total gentleman and that’s very attractive. Not conventionally good looking either which adds to the appeal.
Wouldn’t say no to Novak or Roddick either…they got that something too.
One thing that has totally flown over my head is Nadal. He’s all greasy and sweaty looking even before he starts to play! His talent is quite attractive though…that sounded dodgy!
November 11, 2007 at 1:23 am |
Is there any other name that comes to mind first for tennis hottie other than Safin? Seriously. If the ATP didn’t have Marat, they would have to invent him. Every one else is just a pair of boxers or briefs but who moons you baby!
Mr. Bryan or Stanford should pay Safin to play doubles in 2008. He is a good doubles player and think of the buzz and I’m sure TV coverage if he played Aussie ’08.
November 16, 2007 at 7:12 am |
I agree 100% with the poster above. It’s not possible to be as hot as Marat is.
If you need a proof check the link below…
November 17, 2007 at 5:39 pm |
-Nole
-Ferrer
-Rafael Na…
-Agassi
-Safin
November 18, 2007 at 8:47 am |
safin
gasque-licious
ferrer
ferrero
how come nobody thought of tommy robredo??
he’s my top 2..!
November 19, 2007 at 5:18 am |
1. Rafa-too good to be true
2. Ferrer
3. Guga
4. Rafter
5. Coria
November 19, 2007 at 10:36 am |
krista: robredo’s sprinkled in there. Don’t worry — he’s getting some love!
November 30, 2007 at 12:12 pm |
Rafa of course! especially as appears on your grass is always greener post.
December 5, 2007 at 2:35 pm |
1. Djokovic – oh what a body
2. Djokovic – that treasure trail…mmm
3. Djokovic – and he’s smart
4. Djokovic – and funny too
Totally in lust…
5. Safin (previously would have been top but now eclipsed)
December 7, 2007 at 9:24 pm |
I am all about the Spanish Armada!!!
1. Feliciano Lopez … almost too hot to even look at
2. David Ferrer … amazing eyes & spirit of determination
3. Fernando Verdasco … simply a cutie
4. Nole Djokovic … who can ignore those eyes & that personality
5. Rafa Nadal … great style.
December 8, 2007 at 8:33 pm |
1. David Ferrer Those amazing eyes and smile
2. Fernando Gonzalez
3. Roger Federer
4. Carlos Moya
5. Tommy Haas
December 9, 2007 at 3:01 am |
If you’re going to lump Novak into something non-Serbian, I think he’s spent a lot of time in Germany, no? Marat Safin is the one who has spent time training in Barcelona…
December 11, 2007 at 12:20 am |
1. marat safin (the hottest tennis player ever)
2. gilles simon
3. Novak Djokovic
4. Dimitry Tursunov
5. Frank Dancevic
December 11, 2007 at 1:59 am |
Erwin: I am aware that Djokovic has no affiliation with Spain. I assumed that in a tennis forum it would be common knowledge that he is from Serbia. I also assumed that common knowledge of ratios would illustrate that 4 out of my 5 picks were from Spain, hence the emphasis on the “Spanish Armada.” My mistake!
December 11, 2007 at 6:19 am |
1. RAFA NADAL – sex on legs … Hott as and amzing player, that body and BUM !!!!! Drool
2. Andy Roddick – hott
3. Rodger Federer – Mr cool

no puedo cree que pongan a berdych en la lista. quisas la persona que lo voto le gustaria enseñarle educacion. no se provoca al publico español luego de ganarle a nadal en España.
December 27, 2007 at 1:32 pm |
If I could get one of my hand-painted saints medals on the neck of Rafter that would be my biggest “get” yet.
December 31, 2007 at 3:54 pm |

all the spaniards cute to some degree or another
djoko
gumy- just looked this guy up – agree he’s gorgeous – but since he’s no longer playing (correct?) he’s not on the list above
mirnyi – nice eyes, smile etc etc
donald young to young to refer to as such but looks like he might be quite the looker

3)Nole
4)The Dkokster
5)Novak Djokovic!!! Yummm!
In skivvies, with shirt, no shirt, formal wear, no wear (dream-on), in jeans, shorts, sweats, tanned, not-so tanned, smiling (them fangs rule), frowning, goofing off..oh, and I also forgot: With his glasses on, sooo intelectual looking.
January 2, 2008 at 7:08 pm |
1) Novak Djokovic!!!!!!!!
He’s so sexy. Cute smile, great body! no shirt……
2) Andy Roddick
yummmmmmmmm.
3) Marat Safin
short hair only.
4) James Blake
Without any stuble.
5) Richard Gasquet
love a man in Lacoste short shorts
January 3, 2008 at 12:08 am |
Murray Oh come on. In what department. He is skinny, pimples, pale and that hair.
January 3, 2008 at 9:57 am |
Laura – you’ve clearly got it as bad for Nole as I have!
Have been watching the Hopman Cup this week and keep melting inside at every glimpse of that stomach. And the glasses and those eyes….woooh
I pray that he’ll take to wearing better fitting shorts this coming year – it looks as though he has the most wonderful tight little ass but the shorts are too loose to fully appreciate it, or any other delights. Adidas – please take note and do better.

Nole is the only guy who makes perspiration work for him. I’m watching Hopman Cup, and Hantuchova-lookalike Mardy Fish looks all oily and stinky, while Nole’s sweat is almost dainty and just makes him look even hotter. I think it’s that hair; it is impervious to moisture of any type.
January 5, 2008 at 3:35 am |
1. * Nolak, Djokovich*
ohh n thats it
yummy!!!
January 5, 2008 at 8:30 am |

beautiful guy
berdych and clement should be somewhere on my list too at least h-mention
January 6, 2008 at 10:47 pm |
Wow….this has gotta be the longest comments ever…..
So, let me chime in:
1, Tursunov – funny (more intellectual than Djokers’ slapstick) and soooooo sexy
2, Safin – was not a fan until he cut his hair short and we had a moment (eye contact, kind words, and autograph were exchanged) at Wimbledon 2007.
3, Gasquet – not really my type, but have you seen his backside?
4, Rafter – truly husband material
5, Martin Damm (doubles player) – I sometimes fantasize being Leander Paes…
HM – It’s a shocker……wait for it…….Kolya. Based on his on court work ethic, I have a feeling that he would be awesome in bed!
January 7, 2008 at 4:14 am |

Andy Roddick (cute, plus genuinely funny)
January 8, 2008 at 11:23 am |
My list:
1. Thomas Muster – This guy CLEARLY had the hottest ass on the tour. There’s a pic floating out there somewhere of him in a jockstrap…lordy!
2. Robby Ginepri – Very hot
3. Rafter – Very strong, tall specimen of a man
4. Nalbandian – Looks much better when he’s all cleaned up
5. Niemenen (sp?) – Very cute

feliciano lopez
juan carlos ferrero (i swear, this guy’s a don!)
olivier patience
clement (did you see his lacoste commercial way back?)
robredo (sans wrinkles and bandana)
davydenko (with 1000 more pounds)
and yeah.. safin (duh)
February 21, 2008 at 3:42 pm |
Haha ok this is fun, although it’s not really that easy. I play competetive tennis myself and love following the professional tours, but it’s hard to judge players on merely their game or merely their looks and personality…we’ll see how it goes! 🙂
In no particular order…
Djokovic – really cute, smart, funny, sweet smile… and not bad without the shirt either. love this guy
Verdasco – nice smile and he was quite cute with short hair
Ferrero – not bad at all!
Clement – a little older but still.. he’s got something about him. (When I worked at Stockholm Open this fall Michael Llodra said during the trophy presentation that “my friend is feeling a bit lonely, if anyone has a date for him, let me know”. terrific)
Coria – saw him at Wimbledon in 2004, very cute close up
Nalbandian – not exactly good-looking, but he seems like a nice guy when he’s cleaned up and smiling
Blake – I liked it better when he had long hair though
Hewitt – without the silly beard… yeah, sure, why not?
Pim-Pim Johansson – school book good-looking
I’m not sure I get all this Safin hype though..hehe 😛 and eoow on Haas and Murray
February 21, 2008 at 10:32 pm |
Andres Seppi (looks like a surfer boy)
Canas (long hair)
Verdasco (Hott Sauce)
Safin
Tipsy (when he is wearing black)
September 11, 2009 at 4:28 pm |
agree on tipsy wearing black! black makes him totally hot and cool at the same time!
February 26, 2008 at 5:58 pm |
1. Richard Gasquet…so hot in person and very nice
2. Janko…the tats…he’s slavic…mmm
3. Dmitri…very very nice
4. Robby Ginepri…unbelievable in person…I mean…wow
5. Mario Ancic…mmm…enough said and only takes pics with girl fans
6. Carlos Moya…so hot up close
7. Amir Delic…wow wow and more wows and so sweet
8. Thomas Enqvist…remember him? delicious
February 26, 2008 at 6:22 pm |
I forgot that Andy Murray up close and in person is actually quite cute and so is Giles Simon. I used to think Lleyton was cute but he has really bad skin. His wife and daughter are super cute though. Roger is actually quite attractive too. I love Nole very very much but he just looks like a little boy. Juan Carlos is super hot too.
February 28, 2008 at 12:22 pm |
Haven’t seen any little boys with a body like Nole’s myself – he looks fully grown up to me!
February 29, 2008 at 2:11 pm |
I guess cos I’m 4 yrs older than him I think he’s young. He’s really sweet though. I am super lucky to have met him.
March 3, 2008 at 4:21 pm |

Djokovic, made a taped speech last month for a rally in Belgrade in which he spoke against Kosovo’s independence. “My life is tennis, my life is sport, this is my job,” Djokovic said. “I’m not trying to get involved in politics, and this is the final sentence from me. I gave that speech because I felt very bad and very disappointed in what’s going on in our country. “The people who know my past and they understand what I’m saying — my father and my aunt, my uncle all grew up there. They were born in KOSOVO, on the NORTH KOSOVO and my family used to live there for 30 years. I was there many times. So it kind of touched me in that moment that this was my quest to give support by my country.”
K O S O V O (Albanian: Kosova; Serbian: Косово и Метохија; Kosovo i Metohija) is a disputed territory on the Balkan Peninsula.
Following the Kosovo War in 1999 the territory came under the interim administration of the United Nations. In February 2008, the Provisional Institutions of Self-Government, an assembly under UNMIK, declared Kosovo’s independence as the Republic of Kosovo (Albanian: Republika e Kosovës). Its independence is recognized by some countries and opposed by others, including the Republic of Serbia, which continues to claim sovereignty over it as the Autonomous Province of Kosovo and Metohija ,Kosovo’s total population is estimated between 1.9 and 2.2 million …92% Albanians, 5.3% Serbs and 2.7% others . Before 1999 and Kosovo war, on Kosovo lived about 500.000 Serbs, and now there are only about 150.000 serbs.
NORTH KOSOVO or Northern Kosovo (Serbian: Северно Косово, Severno Kosovo; Albanian: Kosova Veriore) is an unofficial name for a region in the northern part of Kosovo with an ethnic Serb majority that functions largely autonomously from the remainder of the ethnic-Albanian-majority state, instead operating as a de facto part of Serbia. Ibarski Kolašin (Ибарски Колашин), a Serbian toponym that pre-dates the ethnic conflict of the 1990s, is also used to refer to the area.

The air in Belgrade, even on a sunny winter morning, has a pervasive chemical tang — a toxic mix of coal smoke, bus exhaust, and the raw effluents of heavy industry. The city has actually fallen on hard times since the bloody dismemberment of Yugoslavia, though its standard of living has been falling for 25 years. Belgrade’s leaders and their armies fought and lost four wars in the 1990s, and the territory they rule, which now consists of Serbia alone, continues to shrink with the recently declared independence of Kosovo, a rebel southern province. Serbia is, in short, a humbled and broken country, its international reputation blackened by the atrocities of ethnic cleansing — and the Serbs, always fond of salvation narratives, are these days in need of a redeemer.
From all appearances, they have settled on Djoković. His hatchet face, his burning eyes seem to be on every front page, on every billboard. “He has done more for this country than any politician,” my first Belgrade cabdriver told me. A visitor has to remind himself frequently that Djoković is just a tennis player — a tennis player who is now 20. When Djoković comes home from the tour, the prime minister meets him at the airport; thousands of people gather for frenzied celebrations outside City Hall. Tennis, never before a big sport in Serbia, is suddenly the country’s consuming passion. It’s not simply that Djoković — along with two other locals, Jelena Janković and Ana Ivanović, rising stars on the women’s circuit — has lately shown people that tennis can be a road to fame and fortune. It’s also, poignantly, that he presents to the outside world an infinitely more attractive face than the sinister gangsters and seedy war criminals whom most foreigners learned to associate with Serbs in recent years. At least that’s what I think that cabbie meant.
It’s hard to overstate the extent of Novakmania. When he and I meet, at the modest offices of his family’s sports-marketing business out in the concrete-block sprawl of New Belgrade, he sits at a desk, lanky and loose-jointed, wearing jeans and a rumpled white collarless shirt. He extols the charms of the medieval city just across the river — the traditional Serbian restaurants, the great old neighborhoods, the nightclubs — known as splavovi — on barges in the Danube. Unfortunately, he admits, he can no longer walk through the streets of his hometown. “People recognize me and — I don’t want to say bother me — but they just come up. It’s not really relaxing. All eyes on you.”
This is true even when he’s halfway across the world. After Djoković beat Federer in Montreal, the awards emcee described him as a Croatian. Djoković gently corrected him — too gently, according to Serbian nationalists back home. Debates about his patriotism raged in the Belgrade papers. At other times, he has inflamed anti-nationalists by flashing the Serbian three-fingered victory salute after matches. To many Balkan people, this salute is deeply ominous. It was the signature gesture of the Serbian militias — Milošević’s death squads — in Bosnia and Croatia and Kosovo. Djoković told me, defensively: “I’m not extremist. Three fingers is our symbol. It’s like you have two fingers for peace. Three fingers is for us, for Serbia. That’s what all the people throughout the history of this country did, when they are successful and when they want to show where they’re from.” (That is not quite true — the salute was popularized in the early 1990s by Vuk Drašković, a nationalist intellectual. But, to be fair, young Serbs like Djoković grew up with it, and most don’t associate it with war.) At any rate, Djoković says he’s not even interested in politics.
Still, there’s no escaping such things in Serbia. The basic question facing the country today is whether to turn toward Europe in hopes of joining the E.U. or toward Putin’s Russia, which wants Serbia in its orbit. This decision has historic implications, and Serbs are fiercely divided over it. Djoković comes down on the side of the E.U., which he thinks promises greater prosperity and a chance to leave the dark past behind. But the loss of Kosovo — and the E.U. has strongly backed its independence — is a very painful business for most Serbs, including Djoković. His father, Srdjan, comes from Kosovo, and as a result Novak considers it his true home. Joining Europe, moreover, means joining the enemy from the last Yugoslav war in 1999, when NATO bombers pounded Belgrade with thousands of airstrikes for 78 days. Young Djoković was there throughout the terror. “Very bad memories,” he says. “It’s something which I don’t really like to talk about.”
That year — 1999 — is, however, another inescapable subject. Lining a wall of the room where we talk are many trophies, but the one that Djoković jumps up to show me is an odd-looking gold-plated spire that he received after playing a local charity match. “Do you see this tower?” he asks. “It’s called Avala Tower. This tower is a symbol for Belgrade. Whenever you come to the city from the south, you see this. It was the biggest radio and TV transmitter in our country, and NATO forces, they crushed it. Now they’re planning to build a beautiful, even taller one, so we were playing a charity exhibition to raise money for the rebuilding.” Djoković relates this story without rancor. War happens; it’s horrific; he’s just doing his bit for his town.
The Serbian Tennis Federation has no courts, no training facilities. So how did the country, with less than 10 million people and no strong tennis tradition, suddenly begin producing world-class players? Dušan Orlandić, the Federation’s general manager, told me, “It’s like we had a garage for a Yugo, which was the world’s worst car, and then one day we get up and find parked in there a Ferrari, a Lamborghini, and a Formula One car.” Janko Tipsarević, another young pro from Belgrade, reckons it may have been something in the depleted uranium of all those NATO bombs.

– Novak Djokovic (hello gorgeous! the eyes! the SMILE! and for some reason I really like his haircut, it suits him)
– Fernando Verdasco (oooh that smile! but he must keep his hair short)
-Juan Carlos Ferrero (there are a lot of reasons to watch this guy play, even though he is not No 1 anymore)
– Lleyton Hewitt (it seems he gets better looking and nicer every year that goes by, don’t you think?)
– Guillermo Coria (good call Rebecca, I have always loved him. Great smile and very cute close up)
– Jeremy Chardy (where has he been all these years?)
– Arnaud Clement (older, but still charming, and again, what a smile)
Not quite there but still…:
Olivier Patience
Simone Bolelli
Ernests Gulbis
Pim-Pim Johansson (retired, I know…)
and the uglies:
Radek Stepanek (I wonder why Nicole Vaidisova is playing so poorly at the moment..?)

June 18, 2008 at 10:28 am |
Angelique: the list is entirely subjective, so it is not strange that we do not have exactly the same taste:)
As for Canas, I suppose I dislike him partly because of his doping business, which did not exactly do much for neither his image nor his body which seems, well, a bit fake. and the ponytail and greasy hair makes him look a bit like a drug dealer…sorry 😛

July 24, 2008 at 8:39 am |
1)Marat Safin, without a shadow of a doubt the “gorgeous-est” man on this bloody planet and universe for all it’s worth.Not only is his physique a killer(i have learned NEVER to look at any Marat pic 4 hours before going to bed,because if i do…i won’t be able to get any sleep) but also he has such a fascinating personality.And he looks good from any possible angle.
2)Rafael Nadal…well,the body speaks for itself and also his adorable smile,and his shyness off-court,combined with his paradoxical aggression on-court.And he’s humble and down to earth.Love you Rafa!He’s my fave tennis player
3)Tipsarevic,ok,so he’s not even close to the above-mentioned two hunks,but he has something so alluring in him…
4)unbelievable,i know,(being a fanatic RAFA-fan)Federer.But only and only when he’s wearing black,like he did in 2007’s US Open.I don’t like him generally,but i couldn’t believe my eyes when i saw him in that outfit…
July 25, 2008 at 5:10 am |

Hottest of All Time? Doesn’t that mean the one person with, objectively speaking, the best looks, biggest charisma etc?
Surely that’s MARAT SAFIN, the Errol Flynn of the ATP tour, and the only man who makes other players look like weedy schoolboys. He’s a six-foot-four smouldering Russian Adonis of beauty so perfect you want to weep.
Fact: even his on-court craziness drives women wild.
Bonus points: cool name, insane humour, total lack of vanity, the I-party-when-I-want-to attitude, coach Hernan Gumy.
Safin cannot be oblivious to the effect he has (on both sexes, I might add) but then, he doesn’t give a damn, does he? and that’s exactly why he’s HOAT! I’d be his ballgirl anyday.
Runners-up:
Felice Lopez. Sultry, lycra-loving pre-Raphaelite gym bunny.
Ferrero. Rocking the debauched aristocrat vibe.
Moya. Another he-man, master of the headband.
Haas. 70s leisurewear model/Ken doll hybrid.
Nadal. Musclebound Mama’s boy. How he gets through the day without his arse being grabbed left and right is beyond me.
Sorry but I still don’t get…
Roddick. What’s hot about gluing a sweat-soaked baseball cap to your skull?
Federer. A class act but about as sexy as a Bible circle.
Murray. Feral teenager with hair like a sofa explosion.
Stepanek. Creature from the Black Lagoon.

Marat safin is hottest by far, he is so beautiful that he make’s all other men seem obsolete, i mean there is nothing that isnt perfect about him, he has a masculine beauty that is very rare, and very few men are blessed with it. for example look at armony in his feature’s, he has a perfect manly jaw, gorgeous high cheekbone’s, very well defined eyebrow’s, gorgeous smile, the most beautiful sexy pair of eye’s i’ve ever seen, gorgeous hair, and his body is a tall 6’4 frame of exquisite sexy devine manly perfection, and his inner beauty is just as perfect as his phisical beauty. and god that sexy russian accent of his, and yes i do get turned on when he looses his temper on court. What a man!!

I’m just a little disturbed by Foxy Lady’s quite… detailed descripted of Marat Safin and how she is turned on by him
Okay a lot disturbed.
In fact that’s happened a lot during my reading of most of this.
I’ll admit he looks nice in a suit, just a bit crazy for me.
Lu Yen-Hsun is pretty good looking though. Nice change from South Americans, Europeans, and Spanish.
August 24, 2008 at 7:15 am |
But that is precisely the Safin effect!! Something about him makes otherwise rational people go gaga, from fans to TV commentators to fellow players. He’s hugely popular because of his off-the-wall personality, not in spite of it.
Power to Foxy Lady then, for a heartfelt description of Marat’s features. I don’t doubt if Shakespeare were alive today, he’d be busy writing another hundred sonnets in praise of this man’s stratospheric beauty.
August 27, 2008 at 4:34 pm |
Safin: sexy and dangerous bad boy
Nadal: gorgeous sexy sweetness and innocence
Feli Lopez: unbelieveable beautiful metrosexual, amazing eyes
August 27, 2008 at 7:47 pm |
New list:
1)Tipsy
2)Haas
3)Lopez
4)Verdasco
5)tied (I wish): Robredo/Ancic
Who dropped from the top to the very bottom of my list today? Nole.
Beauty isn’t all if you happen to be a heartless-cheating-cruel long time gf traitor that let’s fame go to head & drops real love for some money hungry cougar!!! shame, shame on you..
August 29, 2008 at 3:45 pm |
1. Federer – with a shirt, without a shirt, in a suit, in jeans…the man is a god.
2. Tipsarevic – intense and thoughtful and damn hot as well.
[bit of a gap between these two and anyone else]
3. Clement – got a nice pirate thing going on.
4. Safin – pretty good looking.
5. Wawrinka – not so hot but very very cute.
And that’s about it I think. Though I really must mention one of the most beautiful men to ever grace a tennis court, umpire Carlos Ramos. I mean wow. He is stunning.
August 29, 2008 at 3:46 pm |
Oh and just to add… MURRAY?! Wtf?

Marat Mikhailovich Safin, the only trully beautiful man in tennis, and one of very few beautiful men in general. He is a manly, tall dark, amazingly handsome speciman, that i only thought dream’s were made of. And his eye’s are the most stunningly beautiful and soulful pair of eye’s that i have ever seen. I look at all other men and realize how pathetic they all are in comparison. And it’s not just about his look’s trust me, everything about that man is perfect, but haven’t got the time to wright it all down.Yes he’s the man of my dream’s, but anyway for the girl’s who think Federar and Murray are hott, I have nothing against you, each is to there own. It would be a boring world if everyone had the same taste.
August 31, 2008 at 7:09 am |

Marat safin 1) And the only one. I agree with some of the previous comment’s, saying that he make’s all other tennis player’s look like weedy little school boys, its true he does. So there’s only the beautiful, manly russian sexgod for me. The beauty, the power, and the intensity of that gorgeous, sexy, beast of a man just blows me away!! I love him..
September 25, 2008 at 3:53 pm |
Safin. No one else even comes close to this Russian beast. He is pure sex – with long hair, short hair, curly hair, crew cut, facial hair, clean shaven, wearing a shirt, no shirt – doesn’t matter. He is the hottest man I’ve seen both in and outside of tennis.
September 25, 2008 at 5:13 pm |
Very well said ladies, I completely agree, Marat Safin is definatly the hottest man alive. And i’m telling all the other women out there, you have not seen hot until you witness the beauty of this man. He is divine!!

Ernest Gulbis…cute smile.
October 20, 2008 at 8:28 am |
elizabennet – I do not agree with all your opinons, but that may have been the linguistically best post I of all in this thread (considering that fact, I must also appreciate you choice of alias!). Seriously, the “Bonus points: cool name, insane humour, total lack of vanity, the I-party-when-I-want-to attitude, coach Hernan Gumy.”-part made me roll over with laughter (I wonder where we would end up if players and coaches had to come in packs? I guess Nadal wouldn’t be topping all lists anymore.. 😉 ) And the Roddick/Federer/Murray/Stepanek-dismissal is so spot on you want to dance around in circles.
and Sannak, you are absolutely right about Nalbandian. The guy’s smile could melt a glacier.

Ohhh Janko! and, in a totally different way…Ohhhh Nole! 1-2? 2-1? luv ’em both as much. I’ve seen them a few times, up-close and personal (not personal enough though!), an they are both DDG.
I know, I still need 3 more, so:
3) Feli Lopez – simply amazing, could just model for a living. The legs, the eyes, the butt…wooow, mercy!
4) Tie: Bolleli (belisimo!) and Ginepri..an Italian thing..mama mia!
5) Verdasco – have you seen his Cosmo ‘au natural’ stint? Ole! and those eyes/mouth/nose..perfect features dipped in semi-dark chocolate..mmm!
Ok, I gotta admit, lately I find myself enjoying Gilles Simon’s game..and cute face & smile. He is like a kitty-kat..I know, way too skinny, specially the legs. That’s why I just give him the cutsie honorable mention..meow!

1. SAFIN – hotter than hot whatever he is doing; smashing racquets, laughing and joking, answering stupid questions with dry wit, ranting in slightly mixed up English with sexy Russian accent
2. Federer – I’ve never really been sure why but it works for me, there are two sides to him- the dark and moody or the boyish charm and I love both; also for some reason I love to hear him speaking Swiss German (even though I don’t understand it)
3. Tipsy – the glasses, the big beautiful eyes, the tats, the stubble, everything
4. Ancic – just all round divinely cute
5. Djokovic – charmer, (D)joker, wonderful sense of humour
Below the top five, in no particular order:
Rafa (just for the body)
Tommy Haas (beautiful)
Roddick (again, the body)
Gilles Simon (gorgeous smile)
December 6, 2008 at 2:08 pm |
1. Rafa- LOL, I completely agree with the person who said “Greatest ass I’ve ever seen…. and I don’t even like asses…..” SO true. But it’s so much more than that also, he’s so humble and such a gentleman. And that smile makes me melt, omfg. Not to mention the sexy accent….
2. Nole- Eyes, eyes, EYES! Personality, personality, PERSONALITY! Killer bod too.
3. Fernando Gonzalez- Oooh Fernando’s also got those gorgeous eyes. He’s beautiful all around.
4. Andy Roddick- He’s also got a great personality too.
5. R-Fed- Yeah, not your typical hottie but such a sweet guy!

Marat Mikhailovich Safin.
Safin is the reason there’s a HOAT poll.
He’s the reason 50% of women go to tennis tournaments even they’re not really into the sport. (Well I might not be accurate, I’m exaggerating, but there’s are women like that) (And the reason ATP is teeming with money with fine money coming from him. :))
Win or lose, fans love him. Even if he sends balls flying their way. (He overturned Aussies when he won AO 2005 against Aussie Hewitt. Ah, such is the charm of Marat…)
Whatever his hairstyle is,
Being upset,
talking to himself,
foot-faulting,
berating umpires,
his deadly backhand down the line,
and when Safin loses it, it’s either
racquet breaking,
chair breaking,
racquet eating,
pulling his shorts down or anything outrageous,
and most especially he doesn’t put himself in a pedestal. Although we’re the ones who put him there. He’s very gentlemanly, and a sport too. (I remember when he hit an net official, he kissed the old lady afterwards) Very professional. Fan-friendly. Enigmatic.
And he doesn’t need the six-pack abs to look manly. It’s effortless for him. He’s such a natural he trumps everyone in the tour!
He is HOAT. Not just in tennis, maybe of the whole world as well.
Not just physical, but his wit too. I read his interviews, and sometimes I am just dumbfounded by his words (he was very mature at 18 to boot). I find him the most intellectual person on sports. Although it is given that almost no one is impressively smart in that category, I believe that he’s way too wise than me. (I am a BS IT student) I will never forget Marat’s one-liners. Classic.
HOAT!
It’s sad that he’s going to retire though. Tennis will never be the same without Safin.
Sorry for being so dramatic, guys. 🙂
July 24, 2009 at 3:32 am |

Thanks for all the work Darklady, you know what puzzles me is Djokovic??? really ? Hot?
And I am shocked that Verdasco is not at the top also…
And I do think that there is something to us women liking the bad boy hence the #1 spot consumed by Safin…e

Hmm, so do we think that Gilles Simon will fill the void left by Marat Safin?!
September 11, 2009 at 4:12 pm
Yes we do 🙂
I like Simon’s “I am French, sophisticated, and tennis is just one of my many sophisticated pursuits” grumpiness much more than Marat’s “I am Russian, break rackets and that’s pretty much it” grumpiness. Marat is soooo 2005 🙂
But for all Marat’s fans out there, I would just like to say: I understand 😉
September 11, 2009 at 2:03 am |

Gulbis is not properly sorted! 15 votes are just TOO little.
So, here’s my list.
1. Ernests Gulbis (Fresh, adorable, curly, athletic!)
2. Robin Soderling (Oh so charming! Also has a great body!)
3. Roger Federer (Gentleman indeed).
4. Marat Safin (Not my type, but I can’t argue he’s hot)
5. Gilles Simon (Ain’t he cute!)
My last words : You’ll see a lot of Erno this year! 😛
Cheers folks! 🙂

Los hombres tambien podemos opinar de los tenistas mas atractivos no?
Me atrevo a decir que Rafa Nadal es horroroso, tiene cara de mono, pero tiene el mejor trasero de todo el circuito
Arnaud Clement es bajito pero esquisiiito.. me lo como enterito
Feliciano Lopez parece modelo mas que tenista, lindo lindo…
Los Alemanes Kiefer y Haas son estupendos!
Lastima que los argentinos no son tan lindos, digo lastima porque solo Gaudio representa bien a mi pais, y Pico Monaco tiene un forrazo de cuerpo, pero debo debo decir que los chilenos son bastante hermosos
mis favoritos Fernando Gonzalez y Nicolás Massu (hermosos ojos)
Mis top 5:
-Arnaud Clement
-Fernando Gonzalez
-Nicolas Kiefer
-Nicolás Massú
-Marat Safin

Mexico hosted the World Cup in 1970 and again in 1986 when Colombia could not afford toit, and obtaining hosted two World Cups could rely from them, but they do have an ace
in the gap Jack Warner who will be combating tooth and nail to bring the World
Cup to the CONCACAF region after observing to go close to the world in the very last two many years.
Nevertheless, with the US also creating a bid, as prolonged as
they dont drop out of the race they ought to
be forward of Mexico in the contender stakes.
