Advantages character, fitness level Disadvantages style of play has been classed boring - but i dont think so
...First of all LleytonHewitt is not American like it suggests on the search. He is infact Australian. He is still at a very young age for pofessional tennis players at 20 years old, and comes from a very sporting family. His dad is a former Australian league Rugby player and his mum a spots teacher.
lleytonhewitts style of play is very unusual. Most players nowadays tend to constantly hit big shots of both the forehand and backhand but Hewitt's tactis when it comes to tennis is to get everything back and to make the opponent keep constamtly hitting the ball.

Background Information:
Hewitt was born in Adelaide, Australian in February 1981. He is 5'11", so not that tall in the men’s game. He turned pro three years ago, and shot to fame by qualifying for the Australian Open at the age of 16 after winning several Australian titles as a youth. Wimbledon is the only major he has under performed in, but he has won Queens, the warm up tournament for the last two years, so is clearly capable of playing on grass. His best performance is reaching the semi-final of the US open last year, and is currently ranked 5th in the men’s rankings. He...
