Stan has become one of the best players in the world, he has always had incredible potential and is finally starting to realise it. He almost had a career year, winning a Slam, a Masters and the Davis Cup to go a long with his Olympic Gold in doubles.

However, Berdych and Tsonga must look on with slight jealously after being the ones pushing the big 4 the closest for so long. They have been competing at a high level for several years now, my question is...when the three plays hang up their rackets, who's CAREER would you most liked to have?

Has Stan's AO win forever given him the edge over Tomas and Jo or do you think they are more proud of their longevity in the game and wouldn't swap careers with the Swiss?

Even with Wawrinka's lone slam, it used to be closeish. But he now has a Masters, made two more slam semi finals, won the Davis Cup.

Between Berdych and Tsonga, I'd go with Berdych, buts there's very little in it.

In 10 years time, none of them will have to worry about money but Stan will have some much fonder memories and a name in the history book outside of a footnote.

Tsonga is the one who I think will have the most regrets. I think Berdych has maximised his talent but Tsonga could probably have achieved more.

That GS Aussie Open win for The Man means he shades it. People tend to remember the big wins. Just look at Pat Cash. He'll be forever remembered for his Wimbledon triumph. But if you look a little closer at his career, it was quite modest. He only won SIX tournaments.

Stan for me. Tsongas gae looks like it would hurt the arm, and the pressure from the French is huge. Berdych must be a little frustrating to be from a results point of view (though the GF is a major plus point).

Being in Rogers shadow must also be annoying sometimes, but has the benefit of taking all the pressure off you.
Stans game also looks the easiest on the body, and he has the results to boot.

I would also add that I dont think Jo's done quite yet hes a n enigma of sorts and theres still every chance a draw might open up one day and hell take it

Tsonga certainly the one with the most entertaining game agreed he has never maximised his talent and may well come to regret that but IMO whilst Stan has achieved the greatest success Birdy has not got a lot going for him (discounting his girlfriend!!)so I go with JWT he may surprise us yet

While I agree I'm surprised how unanimous it has been, Berdych has achieved incredible longevity shown by his QF appearances. Before the Aussie last year Wawrinka hadn't won anything bigger than a 250! He's made incredible strides in a year, Tsonga and Berdych can came claim to have had a better career. Tsonga himself said he wouldn't swap with Stan after the Davis Cup final.

I like Tsonga... but he's lying.Career high of #3, DC, Aus Open, Olympic gold medal... I'm not sure there's anything Tsonga has that Wawrinka would really want. The same can't be said vice versa

he was saying he has more SFs so has been a constant threat in slams, while Wawrinka had one great year (bear in mind this was before this years Aussie so Stan had only been in 2 SFs)

I'm calling one of two things. Either
Bulldust OR
a lack of ambition.

Neither suprise me, but I have a hard time believing Tsonga would really rather have what he has.

I dont think its an outrageous statement, longevity is lauded in this sport and he and Berdych have been in the top 10 a hell of a lot longer than Stan, isn't that important? We praise Federer's number 1 count etc.

I do agree Stan has won just enough to edge this argument but if you think Rotterdam was his first ever 500 thats unbelievable to me.

I think Stan will look on more fondly because he has ended his career strongly and made up for lost time just in time, while Berdych will leave more frustrated as will Tsonga as they were knocking on the door for so long.

Over the last 2 seasons, Stan has achieved so much and that slam edges him ahead. Berdych has generally had the most accomplished, consistent career of the 3 from a pretty young age. His poor movement and mental frailty have been his insurmountable obstacles. He'll never win a slam. Tsonga's time is done too. Stan has a very slight chance of adding another slam.

Anyways, Stan > Berd > JWT

Stan's career is superior he has enough other successes along with his slam to elevate him over the others. I mean before his slam he didn't come out of nowhere he was a consistent top 20 guy who all of sudden had that big run at a major. Consistency is great and Berdych has made a lot more slam semis and quarters than Stan and always been in the top ten. But its better to be a one slam wonder than a no slam wonder.

I would say Wawrinka / Berdych / Tsonga in that order

What stands out for me with each:

Wawrinka - Slam win, masters win and Davis cup

Berdych - impressive record of beating all of the top 4 in a grand slam (Really impressive achievement and not sure who out of top 4 can say they have accomplished this feat over 5 sets). Very consistent record in grand slams too, so many times in QF or better and final at Wimbledon beating Federer and Djokovic in the process

Tsonga - Just not sure what to make of Tsonga, he has a lot of talent but very frustrating at the same time. There are two things that will always cost him in a big match, his backhand is simply not good enough and he is prone to big mental lapses.

Back in 2008, I really expected Tsonga to push on but I really think he has under delivered. I think stans slam win does it but I would put berdych very close to him in terms of achievements as he has been so consistent

Tsonga a good bit behind for me.........I do like him though

Erm, JWT has also beaten all the big 4 in slams? Its very close between Berdy and Tsonga. If anything, I would give the edge to Jo. He has won two masters since the big 4 have been pre-eminent. Berdy only has one - a long long time ago.

Re-reading my message, it could be misinterpreted that I think Berdych/Tsonga are above Stan. I don't. Stan's slam win places him comfortably above the other two.

By a long shot, I'd rather have Wawrinka's career, because he's won a major. No comparison for me.

maybe a more interesting one would be Wawrinka or Ferrer? I was mainly getting at the consistency over the course of a career, Berdych and Tsonga were at the top of the rankings a lot longer than Stan, they were superb players for a long time, before Stan won the Aussie '14 the biggest tournament he had ever won was a 250!

I think Stans the clear winner because of his slam. If you took that out and say he had the same results he has now but lost the AO 14 final, then it would be very close between all 3 of them and Ferrer.

Now then, what about Ferrer or Berdych?

Wawrinka is a Slam champ so he cannot even be compared with the other two and hence wins the poll hands down, had it not for a slam I would have chosen Tsonga's career for success, Berdych Life for the Girl Friend.

I am surprised that nobody has pointed this out;

Berdych career ernings: 20 mln $

Stan: 15 mln $

This is quite a big gap between the two. Also, does the comparison include extra tennis achievements as well? If so would I have for instance the same ehm ehm "support team" of Berdych if I chose his career??

It must be also sweet to win a couple of Davis cups for your country. In the UK he'd have already his monument built in central London for achieving it. As much as I like Stan, he's likely to be remembered as a one slam wonder, while Berdich, whith all his limitations, will be remembered as one of the top players of his age.

I'll remember Stan far more than I will Berdych even if only as Federer's sidekick for his Olympic and Davis Cup wins

Before 2014 Stan wasn't in the picture, in the past 15 months Stan has far outperformed both of them. Harder to split Tsonga and Berdych though.

On paper of course you'd pick Wawrinka.

But
(1) you'd be disappointed if you were a Berdych or Tsonga supporter and while they were an active player they stated that they'd rather have someone else's career
and
(2) life isn't lived on paper, and in retirement, I'd suspect that all of these guys are going to look back to the best moments of their career with great fondness and pride. Having witnessed Tsonga winning and receiving his Olympic silver medal in London, I'd imagine that'll be one of the highlights for him, so why have regrets about what you didn't achieve.

Berdych still with the consisitency against the lower ranks but Wawrinka with the belief on the big occasions.

I wonder where Ferrer would rank alongside this trio?

Between ferrer Tsonga and berdych. Tsonga is the marginally more successful. However is pick him mostly because it must be nice to get success with such a free flowing style. Ferrets career looks like daily agony

Prize Money wise

Ferrer - $26,394,492
Tsonga - $14,659,949
Berdych - $21,944,642

Will this change your mind, T2? Hug

Well the question did say when they hang up their rackets rather than based on the achievement when you posed the question. So, Stan clearly ahead of the others now, if we had a vote now, it might be unanimous.

Stan is in a position of his own now. Clearly behind Murray, Djokovic, Federer, Nadal in career achievement, but clearly ahead of all other active players.

Stan vs Del Potro might still be a debate (Del Potro might have won more without injury) although you probably give the edge to Stan in that one.

Today's match just about seals it. Or, at least, Stan has to be the clear front runner now until the other guys start winning slams.

What about Wawrinka vs Murray? I don't care about Murray's masters' win's lol, I think that performance puts Stan ahead. I am still reeling from some of the shots he pulled off.

Well Ferrer wasn't in the poll, otherwise amongst these he would be winning hands down.

Anyway right now it looks like Stan has answered the question and settled this debate once and for all.

Go Stan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Interesting Murray / Stan point. Tough call, on Slams it's level for sure. Probably Murray, but one more Slam gives it to Stan and right now I'd not bet against it.

For sure, but it's an interesting point to bring in should Stan get a 3rd Slam any time soon.
