studied tennis ever since, and I had NEVER heard of the so-called "Australian grip" that he says most of the Aussies used. Some of them used the Continental, I think, and some, like Rosewall, used an Eastern. As for the rankings, that's just HIS opinion, of course. The question is: WHOSE opinion? Ellsworth Vines HIMSELF, or Gene Viers, the guy who helped him write the book. My understanding of Vines is that after 1940 he immersed himself in golf and had nothing at all to do with tennis anymore. After retiring from golf, he helped run the La Quinta resort outside of Palm Springs, more on the golf side than the tennis, I believe. With all of the very detailed info he gives about grips and playing styles of these various players, I find it hard to believe that he could have found time over the years to study them so carefully. Viers, on the other hand, was a sports writer for the Los Angeles Times, I think, although a very minor one -- Googling him hardly turns up a trace of him. HE might well have been the guy who was fascinated by tennis and, every time the pros came through So. Calif., he turned out to watch them. And, for all I know, interview them. Then, I imagine, he basically wrote Vines's book, chatted with Vines a couple of times, and put all of his OWN opinions into the book. I certainly don't believe that Vines had anything to do with the weird chapters about how to PLAY tennis! As for Budge and how good he was, I just don't know. I never saw him play. He did beat Vines, Riggs, and Perry on the tour, although not badly. And Kramer calls him the best. I've seen a video of him playing Riggs, and maybe a couple of other people, and his serve didn't look all that hard to me, but it's hard to tell from videos. Everyone at the time SAID he had a great serve. As for Segoo and his ranking, Kramer says he could beat everyone except himself and Gorgo. In 1958, after Hoad had turned pro, Kramer had a round-robin at the L.A. Tennis Club. I went to see some of the matches (Gorgo beat Ken in a long evening match) and I also saw Segoo beat someone or other. There were either 7 or 8 players in the round-robin, the BEST players in the world, and Segoo beat EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM! He didn't lose a single match. Gorgo, Sedge, Ken, Lew, Trabert, Hartwig (I think), Pails (I think). So, when he was on, he was indeed unbeatable. And he was FUN to watch! As Kramer says over and over, he was the MOST fun of any of the tennis players to watch.... Cheers!

player : Cochet and Austin didn't make the trip. Because of his illness Cochet didn't deserve the 1st amateur rank. I have all the available results for the Monte Carlo Cup and the Italian Chps (Sutter's book for Monte Carlo and Fumarola's book for the Italian) : for Monte Carlo some matches or rounds are missing (Sutter though helped by Alan Little couldn't find all the results before publishing his book in early 1997) but for the Italian I have all the matches (except errors) from 1st round to final. In particular in 1931 Cochet beat just good players at Monte Carlo (as George Lyttelton Rogers) but not top players and in the Italian he beat only "ordinary" players and the only good player he met was G.P. Hughes : being already ill the French couldn't resist and lost in straight sets. So Károly and I agreed 6 months ago that Vines was probably the leading amateur. But contrary to you Károly and I also agreed that Tilden was the best in 1931 because Tilden was a better all-round player than Vines in 1931 in particular on clay. Vines improved after 1931 nevertheless in the very first meetings against Tilden in 1934, Tilden led Vines though all the matches were played on fast indoor courts, Vines's best surface. Only after Vines reverse the results at the very end of their first short tour (11-9 for Vines). Then in the rest of the year 1934 Vines mastered Tilden but mainly on fast courts. Vines became a top player on clay only in 1935 when he won the French Pro beating Nüsslein (then the best pro claycourt player) winner of Tilden in the semis : this was Vines's apogee on clay. So I repeat : even at the very beginning of 1934 Tilden beat Vines on the latter's best surface so I presume that in 1931 Tilden was better than Vines on every surface.

588:

January and the Victorian Chp in November : in the last one he beat in the semis one Parker (for the moment I can't find if it was Harry or Ernie Parker) but defaulted in the final to Heath. I recall you that the British Isles made an Australasian tour in austral summer 1912-1913. In November the British Isles captured the Davis Cup with in particular Parke beating Brookes in five sets. Then the British team played numerous matches down under (in particular the Australasian Chp and test matches against New South Wales, Queensland, New Zealand, Sydney Metropolitan Club, Australia, Victoria, South Australia, Western Australia). In early 1913 Brookes represented Australia (meeting ended on January 21, 1913) then Victoria. The Melburnian had learnt from his Davis Cup defeat to Parke not give angles to Parke and to play in the centre of the court : in those 1913 matches Brookes met Parke twice and beat it : 97 62 as an Australia representative and 63 36 63 as a Victoria player. But more amazing Brookes met Charles Percy Dixon, one of the very top player of the time, and Brookes crushed him ... 60 60. So Myers have perhaps overrated Brookes (on reputation) but not so much. The most puzzling : Charles P. Haggett, a British professional, invited by the West Side Tennis Club in early 1913, had a slight edge on McLoughlin in practice matches for the preparation of Davis Cup in early June 1913 and have beaten Wilding too in practice matches (but I don't know when and where : 1913 seems doubtful because Haggett was mainly in the States whereas Wilding was in Britain so perhaps in 1914 when Australasia played the US in Davis Cup)

1973:), the first 16 pages then and already noted several errors. Besides I do not subscribe to many of his evaluations. Once again Rosewall is underrated. Vines said that it took Rosewall a long time (I don't remember exactly but I think 1 and 1/2 year) to dominate a declining Segura in the pro tour while in reality as soon as Wembley in September 1957, Rosewall led Segura in head-to-head confrontations. It took only 8 months for Rosewall to take the measure of Segura. Vines was circumspect toward the lift shots while it was already the standard since his book days and became the only way of playing since. He mainly explained Laver-Segura-Riggs-Rosewall order by their supposed service efficiency correlated in his opinion to their respective height. On the other hand he pretty overrated Budge who was not such a great volleyer, had not a such a great service and even less great smash and who once had reached a supposed peak (in 1939, not in 1938) didn't try to improve his game anymore (it is true that war and his 1943 injury didn't help). However Vines was true enough about the Serve & Volley game myth however on fast surfaces, which doesn't exist anymore, players after 1978 such as McEnroe and Edberg, true S&V players, and even Becker and Sampras (both played more from the baseline) were pretty efficient with this type of game. Vines probably would have praised (loved ???) the modern "Big 5" (Wawrinka included) game. I said earlier that Rosewall was pretty underrated but Segura and Riggs are also pretty underrated (virtually unknown). 604:

win indoors. As to 1934, Tilden is the one with the advantage because he has played indoors a lot. Amateurs hardly played indoors (vines' events in 1931 are all outdoors); kramer had the same problem against riggs and just used the wrong tactics initially indoors; the point is Vines won the series and who won the 1st match is irrelevant. vines was the better player in 1934 and though it could be argued Tilden had declined from 1931 its not particularly proven. Whether Vines got any better is not sure either. He played great in 1931, great 1932 (his wins in 1932 finals at us open and wimbledon suggested awsome form, but he did not play like that every day), poorly in 1933.; its unknown whether he raised his game in 1934 or not. So a fair compromise would be a tie between the two.

550:

the USA. He has also very importantly beat perry 4 times; and perry seems to be the only top player competiting on both sides of the ATlantic, which leaves VInes as the only real candidate for n01. Myers' rankings should be discounted and as bowers meekly just accepted Myers'views his ranking should be discounted. I feel that as a compromise Vines and Tilden should be named as co-numbers for 1931 ( My gut feeling is that Vines was the better player given he always had the edge on Tilden when they played from 1934 onwards and looks as impressive as ever in 1931). The problem is the source. Can we use Andrew Tass as the source and get round the inevitable objections of Tennis expert's fanaticism on wiki rules

Championship at the very end of December 1909 and afterward took the boat to travel to Europe (a 6/7 week trip!). Along the way he had a stop-over in South Africa and won the championship in Jo'burg in April 1910. It's highly improbable that he played the Riviera tournaments in between these dates. So, I think we can safely conclude that Wilding did not win a title at San Remo in 1910 and I have removed it from his title list (if other sources can be found to show otherwise we can always put it back). Cheers,

there are some other slight errors I don't remember anymore but it is a wonderful book very detailed with many pages (I don't remember how many but probably circa 400). With this book I put 112 or 113 titles in the French & English Knowledge articles without counting his titles between 1901 and 1903 won in Colleges, and his Wimbledon Plate victory as well. Since the English article has been updated by other Wiki members who added some other victories while I didn't change this part in the French one.

journalism is hack work of no merit. We are not here to parrot copy from published work. All wiki editing rules are rubbish. rabid elitism and anti democratic. 1964 was not rigged in your silly terms . Geist co-ranked Laver and Rosewall no1. but the majority of pubished sources favoured Rosewall; howver carlo, german friend and myself all clearly saw that laver had the better record in Macculey's book; Laver was no1 and very clearly so. truth is more important than published sources.

hello carlo, Vines seems to me to be a good player on all surfaces. In 1931 2 of his wins are definitely on clay. Vines just did not play very often on european clay throughout his career.
