    alicia molik is good.

    todd woodbridge has great insight into the court conditions, and shows respect by not talking during the point.

    roger rasheed is very direct, but at least he knows what he is talking about.

    jim courier is good, i like his sense of humour.

    tracy austin is alright, she sounds like she has known a lot of players personally.

    my fav commentators though would be jim courier and todd woodbridge, but i would not mind seeing johnny mac commentate for channel 7 again like he did in 2004.

    i can not stand sandy roberts and chris dittmar, they dont even know what theyre on about, and they seem so uninteresting.

    Fox Sports should try to get the rights next year, then maybe do a "viewers choice" kinda thing, so you can pick what match you want to watch. Heaps of matches are played in a day, some of them are really good, even though they got unknowns playing in them. So a viewers choice of Tennis would be epic. If not, then play games across all 3 channels (Fox sports 1, 2, and 3), with a constantly live channel (probably fs2), a channel for the "big games" (fs1) and a channel that has repeats (fs3). They would only play the tennis on channels 1 and 3 sometimes, and give other sports there time slots, with fs2 constantly playing tennis. This would be heaps expensive, but at least the Tennis will get the respect it deserves. Only problem is people who don't have foxtel miss out.

    Channel 7 must be the Australian channel that's broadcasting the Aussie Open. Well I haven't seen this channel before but from reading the comments I see that Jim Courier and Tracey Austin are commentators. I would definitely say Courier is my favorite, I love him during the U.S. Open he is funny yet always knows when to draw the line and give him input with his great tennis knowledge.

    My favourite has got to be Jimmy Courier. The accent, the knowledge and the experience makes him an outstanding commentator.

    Jim Courier. He has great knowledge, great voice and a great sense of humour!! Hope channel 7 hangs on to him.

    Molik! She cracks me up. Toddy Woodridge does a good job and Jim.. gotta love that accent and pronounciation of 'Rafa' Raarfaar LOL!

    Personally I don't really like Molik commentating, her voice kinda irks me. Although my favs are JA and Todd Woodbridge.

  • 1 decade ago

    Tracey, Roger and Jim. Cant decide on who's favorite.

    Alicia Molik is my favourite, she is new,fresh and has played great tennis before. So she knows what she is saying :)

    molik, she provides great inside because she actually knows the players and has played against them herself
