Fall Out Boy star compares Federer, Nadal, Serena Williams' playing styles to musical acts

American musician and lyricist for rock band Fall Out Boy Pete Wentz has drawn comparisons between the style of play of Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Serena Williams with particular styles of music.
An avid tennis fan, Wentz was asked for his thoughts on Federer, Nadal and Williams.
He’s (Roger Federer) a guitar solo,” Wentz said in an interview with Tennis.com. “When you see him play, you’re seeing something that is so incredibly beautiful.
“With them (Rafael Nadal and Serena Williams) it’s impending doom - heavy metal, relentless, coming out like a train, just super heavy."
Federer has not played any competitive tennis since last year's Wimbledon, where he lost int he quarterfinals to Hubert Hurkacz. The 20-time Grand Slam champion subsequently underwent knee surgery in August and has been working on his recovery and anticipated return to the ATP Tour.

- I heartily disagree with Stubbs here. I mean c'mon! The whole idea of giving out wildcards is to give new & up-coming players a chance at getting as much circuit match-practice under their belts as possible. And this is a HUGE must and opportunity for these new kids on the block. Why curtail opportunities for these newbies in favour of stalwart monopoly?? That just isn't fair. At least give these lesser known players a chance to become more familiar at playing in bigger tournaments & give them also a chance of getting the crowds behind these underdogs.
