Top Five Tennis Commentators

1. John McEnroe - He knows the game inside and out and is willing to say what he is on his mind. Big surprise. He did the same as a player.

He was great with Ted Robinson on USA Network when they held the rights to evening matches during the US Open and he has developed a strong rapport with his brother Patrick on ESPN at this year's Open.It is kind of like good cop,bad cop.
 
2. Mary Carillo - She knows tennis as well,if not better than anyone. She is a tennis purist and as such shines on CBS.She brings the fans both inside and out of the lockerroom and her analysis of strategy is second to none.She has a keen and quick intelligence.
 
3. Dick Enberg - What a voice. He has been with CBS since 2000 after 25 years with NBC.He may not be a tennis encyclopedia,but he has great researchers and partners to help him out.

4. Jim Courier - He has really come into his own this year.Certainly his captaincy of the US Davis Cup Team has enhanced his perspective into the game.He is bright and unassuming and is expert on analyzing play on clay and the hard courts of the United States Summer season.
 
5. Ted Robinson - He is now the lead tennis announcer on NBC,replacing Enberg.He is expert in both baseball and football in the San Francisco area,but his years with McEnroe on USA have really honed his tennis skills and knowledge.He also does work on the Tennis Channel and challenges Enberg for great announcing voices.
