Just crazy

exciting, heart-stopping, and also mouth-drooling.. (laughs)

He is extremely volital. He can completely dominate in one set and get completely frustrated the next resulting in him serving up a mass of errors. Granted this happens to everyone, but it seems to be highly noticeable with him.

I have always wondered---how exactly do you spell "Marat Safin"? Now I know: T-E-M-P-E-R T-A-N-T-R-U-M! Oh, he's a great player, but he is a bomb that has blown up almost as many times as Jimmy Connors! I think they both had biological time clocks that set them throwing fits every eighteen minutes. I would, however, like to see him win a Wimbledon. I think he's worked hard enough for it. Calm down just a smidget, Marat!

Man is this young guy gifted. Tall, strong, and lightning quick, my take is that Safin will be the next dominant player on the tour. Watching him steamroll over arguably the greatest player in history in the finals of the US Open was shocking, to say the least. As if this guy needed any more natural gifts, word has it that he does all right with the ladies as well...
