Moya's another guy whose maybe near 6ft2 at a push but is listed or claims 6ft3. Him, Murray, Roddick, Djokovic, Dimitrov and Andrew Castles are all in the same ballpark

Moya is having a good laugh with 1.90m. He may be 188cm, but he could be as low as 186.5cm I think.

Moya doesn't look 190cm in any of these and here he is with some other 190cm listed players.

He played several times against Ferrero, who was listed at 6' but may be 181cm range and he never looked 190cm. I have been leaning toward 6'2'' for Moya but there is a good chance that he is underneath it. My guess would be 186.5 - 187cm for Moya. What would you guess, Rob?

Editor RobFrom what I've seen I don't think 186, 187-8 maybe

Thanks. I think Philippoussis and Safin are closer to 6'5'' than they are 6'4''. Ivanisevic a genuine 6'4'' but a flat 193cm guy. Maybe Krajicek just edges these guys.
Rob, what is your opinion on Carlos Moya? Always listed at 6'3'' but never looked it. I thought he could be 6'2'' but I am starting to think he was 186.5 range. Maybe in line with Djokovic.

Editor RobMoya claimed on twitter to be 1,90 but 6ft 2 could be likely

Rob, where did you see Philippoussis claiming 6'4''? He was always listed at 6'5'' and he looked about that. Philippoussis certainly wasn't a flat 6'4''. He looks taller than 6'4'' listed Rusedski and about the same as 6'5'' listed Krajicek.

What is the highest you could see Safin at and the lowest?
From all I have seen of him I think 195cm could be possible he can look a weak 6'5"imo,He was one of the few players who was underlisted he was always down as 6'4" during his career.

Link to video of Safin vs Kuerten in 1998. Safin aged 18 and Chris Bowers the commentator describes Safin as "1.95m which is just under 6'5''" at just over 3 minutes in the video.

I think this is a good pic @OriginalAnon, and according to me Marat Safin looks at least 25cm taller than 171.5cm listed Anna Kournikova.
Rob, what do you think? And I’d like to ask you also about this pic with 186cm listed Maria Sharapova on heels (I guess around 6cm heels)?

Editor RobHer posture might lose her a little more than Marat, but then her footwear looks at least half inch thicker, maybe a bit more, so 186 and 195 could be possible.

Rob, I don't know if you watched much tennis and seen him much, but what is your impression? Safin is surely 6'4.75" at least. Having seen him in person, he was the tallest looking 6'4'' I have ever seen. I think he is 6'4.75" or 6'5'', but not taller than that. He just never gives the impression of ever being under that.

Goran Ivanisevic is a solid 193cm guy, but Safin is clearly 6'4.75" or 6'5''. He always looks taller than the 6'4'' guys.

Marat Safin with former slam champions Rod Laver and Goran Ivanisevic.
I think there’s at least 1 inch difference between Goran and Marat, not possible Goran Ivanisevic 6’4’’ if Marat Safin is only 6’4.5”.
My guess Ivanisevic 193cm and Marat Safin 196cm.

Rob, the upgrade is at least somewhere along the right lines. Safin might be 6'4.75". I'd be staggered if he was not 6'5'' out of bed. Safin always looked taller than every 6'4'' player he competed against and considerably taller than 6'3'' players. He was more in line with Philippoussis, Mirnyi, Berdych. It is true that Safin's presence may have made him appear more imposing.

No way under 195cm.

He is taller than 6'4". He confirmed it some time back and many commentators say so. He was measured at 6'4" at 17 and said he was 6'5".

Have been around Marat many times in Valencia
He is at least 6'5" in my opinion.
I am a good 6'2" and a half, and he is definitely at least 2 and a half inches taller than me.
I'd say he is at least 195cm

I just wrote a much more interesting one about Arnold Schwarzenegger...here I'm just commenting, can you get a decent picture of Marat Safin! He's a tennis great, and this looks more like he's a bar room great!
As for height, though, thinking that, as with Arnold S., who was a bodybuilder -- these people are in athletics, and I can't imagine their heights and weights are faked too much. I mean, I suppose they're not all heighted/weighted like boxers, down to their arm length -- but I also can't think that any "official" statement, even by themselves, could be more than a half inch off or so.

Looks a legit 6'4 in person, I would even guessed 6'4.5 maybe but he was clearly 2 Inches under a 6'6 Del Potro and I believe a guy Like Berdych who is 6'4.5/6'5 is taller than Marat.
He was a great tennis player back in his day and such a character.

From a decade of tennis watching (and safin being one of my favorite players in his prime), i cant see less than 195 morning. Berdych is def taller. Del Potro is a good 2cm taller than berdych Click Here Delpo is a strong 6'6. Berdych 6'5. Safin prob 6'4.5

Safina is definitely at least 195,probably 196 because in 2009 when he paired his sister Safina in Mixed Doubles in Hopman Cup, he is almost 10cm higher than her sister. Safina is strong 186cm according to 2009 Madrid when she stood beside Federer who is legit 186cm. Safina is as tall as Federer even if Fedrer's Nike shoe is a bit higher than Safina's Adidas

6'4" is very tall but it depends on how you look. 6'4" guys like Safin, Hasselhoff and Jason Momoa etc are considered handsome guys and better looking than most. Then there are ugly 6'4" guys. I'd take being 6'4" well built and handsome anyday above lets say a 5'5" skinny and ugly. 6'4" is a little too tall though I agree. I doubt many people here would think that being Marat Safin would be a bad thing.

Nah john, 6'4 would be an absolutely horrible height, ugly in my opinion. I'm 17, 5'10 or 11, and I just want to be 6'0 or very maximum 6'1. I repeat: 6'4 is ugly, don't know where you got the thing that shorter guys want to be 6'4 and taller guys want to be 6'4. My 6'3, 6'4 friends would prefer to be a little shorter.

Yeah he is 6'4" legit which people forget will always look huge anyway. One wonders how tall the parents are of these tennis pros are as average height for a tennis player male seems to be 6'1", and A LOT of players are 6'3" or over. Its like being in frickin Holland in the world of tennis.

Safin looks 6'2 based on the above picture. Pierric is 179.5 and Pierric reached up to safin's eyes and from the eyes to the top of safin's head is 10cm so Safin's height is 189.5cm calculated on that picture.
Safin looks 6'2 based on the above picture. Pierric is 179.5 and Pierric reached up to safin's eyes and from the eyes to the top of safin's head is 10cm so Safin's height is 189.5cm calculated on that picture.

I think Murray has definitely grown since he was 6'1". He was listed at 6'2" in the Olympics and his brother at 6'3" but he may be 6'3" as he looks about the same height as his brother.

Marat is a legit 6'4"er. He has a standard bodytype for that height. In this picture you can easilt see that Marat slouches his neck forward about an inch to inch and a half. He seems 4.5 inches taller than 5'10.5" Pierric but if he had better posture he would no doubt be 5.5 inches taller. I see this guy come up to tennis players of various heights to shake hands all the time. There is zero chance of him not being 6'4".
