Martina Navratilova and Chris Evert gave their picks for the Stefan Edberg Sportsmanship Award when the full list of nominees came out.
The award is awarded every year by the ATP to the players they perceive show the best behaviour on and off the court. It's an awarded that has been dominated by Federer over the years as he won it over 10 times with Nadal winning the last four.
The full list of nominees includes Nadal once more and Evert and Navratilova gave their thoughts on who will win it this year. Navratilova wrote:
"FAA (Felix Auger-Aliassime) would get my vote. But I don’t vote:)"
Chris Evert agreed as she said:
"@Felixtennis would get my vote also....Boy, @Martina you and @Rennaestubbs had a busy night tonight!!!."

- If they find a good balance it does not really matter. Wild Cards are a nice tool to give players a chance but also to fill seats. Is that fair? That discussion will always be there. And discussion is also good for tennis 😁 I think it is good to have them.

- 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.
