If I remember correctly, Pete always had a reputation as a nice guy on and off the court. Very similar to Roger Federer. A ferocious competitor but someone who still would interact with his fans. I've always used that as a gauge of who deserves respect and who doesn't. Simply being a badass tennis player while acting like a privileged jerk earns no points in my book.

"Simply being a badass tennis player while acting like a privileged jerk earns no points in my book."
reminds me of Lleyton Hewitt.
