I personally love Peter Fleming. Great sense of humour and really knows the game. Barry Cowan amazes me with his knowledge of the game - obviously does his homework. Bill Threlfall (bless him) is becoming more forgetful by the minute.
I'd love to know what others think about tennis commentators/presenters.

I am starting to like Barry Cowan. He is a big Murray fan and seems like a nice guy.  I don't like Leif Shiras though. He is not a good commentator.

Re Mark Petchey - despite the split from AM I do respect the way Petch so obviously rates Andy's game.

Wimbledon is just in a class of its own though for all the pundits and commentators.

Peter Flemming and Petch are by far the best! I HATE Barry Cowan with a passion. He always looks like he knows what he's talking about but if you listen to him on a regular basis he changes his standpoint all the time. He actually praised Murray for his consistancy and serve at one point during the US Open series. He just says what he thinks people want to hear and agrees with whoever's in the studio. He gets predictions wrong consistantly. And he irritates me. That voice... I'm seriously considering tomatoes for Aberdeen!

The think that I like about Petchy is he has never divulged any details of his split from Andy, he could quite easily told his story in the papers or he could have been bitter about the end of the relationship but he has remained professional through out. As for the best pundit it has to be...... All hail the King of Commintators Barry Cowan! Barry! Barry! Barry!
