Federer is 6' max, maybe 184 cm pushing it, Nadal 5'11 range definitively
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
If your making such claims then prove it with photos.
I watch tennis regularly and I am dead certain that Federer is a solid 6ft1/186cm and Nadal is strong 6ft0/184cm.

Saw Federer and Nadal practicing at Indian Wells this year, and stood next to both of them at different occasions. I'm a shade over 6 foot 1 (186 cm) and I would say that I was comfortably taller than Nadal and same height as Federer. Nadal is not 6 foot 1 by my estimation but more like 6 to maybe 6 foot and a quarter inch at best. Federer is the same height he is listed at.

This is correct. Nadal looks 2 cm shorter than Roger most of the time and also Federer is close in height with Roddick.

That is a terrible picture to judge height from, Verdasco looks like he is closer to the camera, solderling is about 6'4 the guy on the far right, which means hes taller than everyone apart from del potro but it doesnt appear like it in that photo, its pretty obvious this photo is flawed for height judging purposes.

Guys, a serious question.
Roger's 186cm is based on what? ATP
lists him at 185cm.
To be honest I think many tennis players
are shorter than their ATP height.
I think Federer might be 183-184cm.
186-187cm in shoes.
Nadal 182-183cm.
Roddick also 183-184cm

Nadal is 6' flat MAX in my opinion. Actually, many tennis heights listings seem blatantly suspicious to me, maybe I'll have to change my opinions drastcally.
Someone mentions agassi being listed 1.83(reality 1.78), I would also add Sampras who i remember listed at 5'11.5 in the 90's(probably his real height), then he suddenly 'grew' to 6ft1.

Most of the time when you see Federer next to Nadal he appears to be very slightly taller. I think that Federer is a shade more than 6 ft 1 and Nadal is a shade less than 6 ft 1. Overall they do not have any advantage over each other in terms of leverage since there height difference is so little. I agree that some of the heights on the ATP website are way off, like for example listing Hewitt at 5 ft 11 is ridiculous. But most of them are reasonably accurate and it is safe to say that both Federer and Nadal are around 6 ft 1.

is 184 cm.
Roddick is 6'1 max. He is no 6'2. Roddick
does have a more full body which gives
the impression that he is bigger.
Gasquet is 6 foot. Tsonga is slightly
over 6'1.
Andre Agassi was listed as 183 cm for years.
So don't tell me that ATP heights are correct.
Agassi is 5'10-5'11.
Djokovic who is 186-187 cm. Has an inch on Federer.
Shoe inserts only give a few mm max. An inch extra
is crazy.

he is listed by the atp at 1.85 cm. although some sites claim 1.87 and 1.86.
and don't think he is 1.87. he is shorter than djokovic. seems to have a slight edge on nadal. but have seen pictures where he looked a little shorter as well.
tricky.
but what a beautiful player. Another promising player like him is said to be even better (in comparison to their age) this is G. dimitrov.

Federer is a pro athlete who has regular medicals, drug tests etc. His OFFICIAL stats shown on TV during tournaments are also verfied by the ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals) on their own website Click Here I play tennis also and, whilst I don't really know what an "insert" is, I assume if you are talking about some sort of wedge in the shoe to be taller, then you are in real danger of hurting your ankles. No tennis player, let alone a pro, would do this. To be frank, debating the height of most pro athletes is a bit of a waste of time.

federer is at least 6'1. Anyone who played tennis knows that the idea of any insert is absurd. Tennis shoes must have a very firm grip of the court and they should have max. contact to the ground otherwise the player can very easily roll his ankles. This is especially true for a running guy like Nadal.

If Federer was an actor or some other kind of celebrity he could probably get away with calling himself 6'3", that's how much actors lie about their height and how much tennis players are honest about their heights. Fed says he's 6'1" but he's definitely a little higher than that, he's a little bit taller than Nadal. If you see pics of him with other celebrities, he makes them look way shorter than what they say they are.

The height difference between federer and nadal would't larger than 1cm, actually they are at the same height, both 6'1. So you see federer is taller sometimes, while nadal maybe taller in other occasion"
Listen dude, it's impossible for a human eye to notice that kind of a difference(1cm-1.5cm). The reason why Federer looks taller than Nadal is coz Federer is 185cm and Nadal 183 or 182. 2-3cm is noticiable difference. 1cm could be only detected by an expert like glenn or Rob.

I can hardly see Nadal being as tall as Federer, he always looks at least 2 cms shorter. At times he may look closer, but that's because he puts insoles in his shoes to protect his knees. I'm pretty sure Fed is one of the very few atp players to have his correct height on his profile. Nadal may be 6'0" (he was listed as 5'11" at 18 but he might have grown a bit), not his listed 6'1". Roddick sometimes looks the 6'2" he gets listed, but in some pics he looks shorter than Federer and a lot of people that met him describe him as 6'0"/6'1". Personally I always saw him as a tall guy, but I've seen only once live and I wasn't very close to judge. Hewitt is listed at 5'11" but he gets towered by Federer and many other players most of the time, I think he's at most 5'10". Djokovic is listed at 6'2", he looks marginally taller than Federer, maybe 6'1.5 is more accurate, but probably they rounded it up. I seem to remember Murray listed at 6'2" one year ago or so, probably he's not the full 6'3" but nothing less than 6'2". Gasquet was listed as 5'11" until two or three years ago, he got pro very young so he might have grown a little since he's profile has been created but sure isn't the full 6'1" and probably not even a full 6'0", met him personally a lot of time, he's clearly shorter than me (6'1.25") and also clearly shorter than Nadal. Tsonga he's listed at 6'2", I can hardly see him being anything below that, I always thought he was at least 6'3", huge guy. Verdasco listed as 6'2" is one of the silliest things ever, to me he looks not even a full 6'0", clearly shorter than Feliciano Lopez and clearly shorter than Tsonga when they met in the quarterfinals of the Australian Open. James Blake is listed at 6'1", he looks 5'11" to me. Fish is listed at 6'2", I may be wrong but I seem to remember him listed at 6'0" in 2003. Almagro, listed at 6'0" isn't any taller than 5'10". Gulbis is listed at 6'3", he clearly looks shorter than Djokovic, he's probably as tall as Nadal or just a fraction over it. Finally, Donald Young listed at 6'0" isn't anywhere close to this, at the very most he could be 5'9.5" but I wouldn't be surprised if he's even shorter.
I can hardly see Nadal being as tall as Federer, he always looks at least 2 cms shorter. At times he may look closer, but that's because he puts insoles in his shoes to protect his knees. I'm pretty sure Fed is one of the very few atp players to have his correct height on his profile. Nadal may be 6'0" (he was listed as 5'11" at 18 but he might have grown a bit), not his listed 6'1". Roddick sometimes looks the 6'2" he gets listed, but in some pics he looks shorter than Federer and a lot of people that met him describe him as 6'0"/6'1". Personally I always saw him as a tall guy, but I've seen only once live and I wasn't very close to judge. Hewitt is listed at 5'11" but he gets towered by Federer and many other players most of the time, I think he's at most 5'10". Djokovic is listed at 6'2", he looks marginally taller than Federer, maybe 6'1.5 is more accurate, but probably they rounded it up. I seem to remember Murray listed at 6'2" one year ago or so, probably he's not the full 6'3" but nothing less than 6'2". Gasquet was listed as 5'11" until two or three years ago, he got pro very young so he might have grown a little since he's profile has been created but sure isn't the full 6'1" and probably not even a full 6'0", met him personally a lot of time, he's clearly shorter than me (6'1.25") and also clearly shorter than Nadal. Tsonga he's listed at 6'2", I can hardly see him being anything below that, I always thought he was at least 6'3", huge guy. Verdasco listed as 6'2" is one of the silliest things ever, to me he looks not even a full 6'0", clearly shorter than Feliciano Lopez and clearly shorter than Tsonga when they met in the quarterfinals of the Australian Open. James Blake is listed at 6'1", he looks 5'11" to me. Fish is listed at 6'2", I may be wrong but I seem to remember him listed at 6'0" in 2003. Almagro, listed at 6'0" isn't any taller than 5'10".

Roger is 6ft 1 as well as Nadal. I met them and comparing them to my 5ft 9 frame it seemed right. Roddick on the other hand is close to 6ft 2.5 i guess... He seemed fairly large!

Nadal looked taller than Federer on the podium at the 2009 Oz Open ceremony, but there were many times Roger had more height. I'd say he's around 186 cm while Nadal 185 and Roddick 187. Sampras was a slouch so some of his claimed 6'1 height didn't seem to be there.

It was a great match but Federer looked a little shaken up in the in the 5Th and Final Set. Federer shed tears as he toke the podium and made his speach. Nadal really repects Federer and they will meet again.

Federer is taller than Nadal and always has; they both aren't 6'1". Nadal's height has been listed wrong for many years, now, and I wonder why when its clearly obvious given that the two are the top of the game so they get compared often. It's obvious Federer is taller.

Naaaah, Murray looks close enough to his billed height of 6'3. The most I'd take of is half an inch. That would make Murray 6'2.5". Now Nadal is definately 6 feet tall. Nothing more. I remember him changing his shoes during Wimbledon. While being filmed we saw him putting insoles in his shoes. Those insoles are about a half inch in thickness.

I would've believed it if they had Nadal listed at 6'0. But now that they've increased his height to 6'1, I'm feeling doubtful.

OK..what gets to me is the fact that Hewitt is listed as 5'11. Federer has 3 to 3.5 inches on Hewitt in the snap below. And Roddick who's listed as 6'2, looks about the same height as federer who's 6'1. I can see that Roddick's eye level is about an inch above Federer's, but since federer has a more longer head, it seems he's neck in neck with Roddick. Kinda makes up for that 1-inch loss. Click Here

And again, either Federer is being generous and stating his height as 6'1 (when he's more), or all other players, including Pete Sampras in this pic, are lying about their heights. As seen below, Federer has a good inch on Sampras, who also claims 6'1.

I stand unmoved on my view. During a brief time-out for break, Nadal was clearly being filmed while adjusting the insoles in his shoes. Like I said, Nadal is anywhere from 6 to 6'0.5" feet tall. Those insoles are just thick enough to close the height gap between him and Federer, which is why he seems as tall as Federer most of the time.
@ace1: Dude, Roddick is clearly an inch taller than Federer. He's 6'2.

Yesterday's match was by far the BEST showdown between Nadal and Fed. I would say Nadal is 6'0 1/2 while Federer is 6'1. Only cuz I've seen Nadal use insoles in his shoes, while Federer doesn't. Those insoles are just thick enough to close the gap between the 2 of em. That'z why the height difference between them seems non-existent.

The only time Federer looked taller was from the above angle shot. It's well known that Courier has one of the worst postures around so I still stand by my 184 cm observation. Ofcourse none of us have satisfactory evidence to suggest otherwise, unless I or another poster on here was photographed measuring a celebrity in the morning, midday and late night and was able to take an average from that, which is unlikely to happen, the next best thing is to rely on photographic evidence (usually from Glenn) and his or anothers anecdotal evidence and specualte from there. I say 184 cm, you say 186 cm.

Federer just won his match against Janko Tipsarevic in a match that went for over 4 hours. In the postmatch interview with Jim Courier,Federer is clearly taller than Courier by at least 0.5" and up to a full 1" when he straightened up. Rob's listing of 186cm is accurate, you guys have no solid evidence that Federer is shorter than that.

Yeah Rob, it was post match. That's a good point Rob you raise regarding intensive exercise and its effects on an some individuals average lowest height. I took that into consideration with my estimate of 184 cm.

He was interviewed post-match by Jim Courier who happens to be 6'1" and Courier was definately taller than Federer by about an inch. He could well be 6'.05" (184 cm)

Editor Rob if it's post match federer will be at his lowest point, sometimes folk on here say after strenous exercise they can measure small fraction lower than their usual low height?

when i saw Roddick,i had the impression that he has short arms for his height.i am 6'1 and i have the reach of someone 6'10. trust me,Roddick looked a good portion taller than i am,i have no reason to lie. I mean,look at Federer with 5'8 Glenn,he is at least 4 1/2 inches taller and Roddick is taller than Federer. So,if some of you are saying that Roddick is 6 feet,than that would make Federer 5'11 and as you can see,there is no way that is true.

And another thing, you guys are comparing him to other tennis players who could have had their heights padded as well. But Roddick sure doesnt look 6-2 with 6-2.75 Terell Owens and 6-4.75 Matt Leinart. He doesnt even look 6-1 to me there. Looks 6-0-6-0 1/2.

Hi Lurker... its not that the tennis players lie about their height, but ATP just doesnt put any research into their "Stats". I think they dont even measure them, or if they do its just in shoes. I agree Roddick looks 6'1 to 6'2..thats why cameras and TV can be deceiving..it was only when I saw him up close (in feb of this year) that I knew he was a bit shorter. Tv can play tricks. Its understandable because people think im 6'1 to 6'2 (no one has ever guessed that im 6'0). There is alot of misconceptions out there...people here "6" and they think big deal... but a true 6 footer (without shoes) will actually look reasonably tall.

" 6'3'' JK: How the heck do you know if he is on his tiptoes?" Just looked at the picture, it's obvious. When comparing Federer and Sampras, I honestly don't believe Pete was ever 6'1, maybe in shoes, so Federer has to appear always taller than him.
Adam, I believe that "rumour", it shouldn't be actually difficult to judge these two guys, because they're playing a lot against eachother nowadays. I'm starting to have a strange feelings that I'm the only one who thinks Nadal is taller by 1 cm (or at least the same). It really appears that way to me. Maybe Nadal's footwear gives him more height than Federer's do?

Roddick was taller than Jonathan Ross on his show, so he probably is 6'2'' -6'3'', and he is taller than Sharapova who is a legit 6'2'' Click Here

I can buy that Roddick is 6-0. I figured Roddick was in the 6-1 range.

Again i feel that the LTA measure players in tennis shoes and if you look at Roddick's footwear they are bigger and more chunky than the other players especially Federer who wears a more elegant shoe. Check out Andy's Babolat shoes i bet they give him a good inch and a half maybe more.

You know the funny thing about height is that almost 95% of people think Im taller than what I really am (I get 6'1 + most of the time, sometimes even 6'2), so I can easily see how people confuse guys like Roddick and Federer as 6'2. Almost no one thinks im 6'0 and no one ever thinks im less. Just saying.

I should also note I am exactly 6'0.25 without shoes (I have no reason to lie) and my dad even said I was a tiny bit taller than Roddick but gave him 6'0. I felt the same as him. I knew instantly when I saw him practicing on a court before I went right up to him that he wasnt going to be 6'2 , even though I thought on TV he appears taller.

To Glen: Im not convinced thats a 5' difference in that pic. That hat obscures the top of his head as well. I will say that I have never seen RF in person, but I have met Andy Roddick in person and can verify (as well as someone else with me who saw) that he is 6'0 even. So if all the stats say he is taller than nadal and federer, someone must be lying. Federer could be 6'1, but that means hes taller than Roddick.

I think Federer is more like 6' 1.5". I watched a match of him playing Pete Sampras and he was about half an inch taller. Same goes for TimHenman. Both Tim and Pete are 6' 1".

Karlovic is very tall (not huge though, he looks like a stretched-out version of the 5'8" Arnaud Clement, rather than a blown-up version). Definitely around 6'10" compared to Clement - he's below his shoulders.

Its interesting how Federer looks taller than 6-1 to some. Hes actually looked a little shorter than 6-1 to me at times. Strange. He probably really is his listed height of 6-1.

How could you recognize the different inches between Roger Federer and Andy Roddick or Rafael Nadal. I'm a fan of tennis; I met them all; their height are the same - 6'1. No way, Roger's height is similar to mine (6'3 as somebody say).
Thank Rob for a nice pic Ivo Karlovic vs Arnaud Clément. But I don't understand;as my feeling, I don't see that this crazy stickleback is shortest(
I talk about Arnauld,he's very unstable...unbelievable nice and unbelievable aggressive, too); I think, he's still a bit taller than his buddy Sébastien Grosjean. I also met another huge player, his name is Alexander Popp. I really wonder "Is Ivo actually the tallest player?"

I think Federer could be taller than 6’1”. Prior to his Wimbledon final he hung out with Goran Ivanisevic for warm up session. Next to 6’4” Ivanisevic he only looked about 2” shorter.
Next to big 6’4” players like Marat Safin and Mark Philippousis, Federer does not look much shorter. I think he looks 6’1.5” at least.

Federer looks taller than 6'1", BBC showed highlights from his 2001 win against Sampras last week, and Roger had atleast 1 inch on Sampras when they stood side by side. He also looked like he had an inch on Nadal, and on Saturday when he was interviewed with Pierce Brosnan,who seems atleast 6'1.5, he looked to be taller than him. He looks around the 6'2" mark.

No, Federer has always looked like one of the only few in the sport billed at the correct height. It's really crazy because a bunch of the top players are also billed at 6'0" and 6'1", but they all look different in height. lol
Hewitt, though, isn't anything over 5'10", and that's being generous.

Hewitt is about 5'10.5" which is short compared most of the top tennis professionals. Hewitt is taller than expected when you see him in person.

Hewitt looks like a 5'10, even though some sites have him listed as 5'11. In this picture, he's standing next to 6'1 Federer. That doesn't look like the so called "2 inch" difference, more like 3 to 3 and a half!

Yes Rob, you're right, I thought about that sooner he could deserve his own place here... I remember Davis Cup final 2005 - Croatian team at opening ceremony standing next to eachother: Ljubicic (6'4''), Ancic (6'5''), Karlovic (6'10''), Ivanisevic (6'4''). Even there he looked huge.

Nadal has grown quite a bit in the last few years. If you recall he was listed at 5'11'' four years ago, but has truly grown to be 6'1''. In fact though, Weekly, Federer is about 1cm taller than Nadal. Nadal is just more muscular.

Nadal, now, is listed at 6'1" (185cm) just like Federer, but it's quite clear that Roger is the true 6'1". It's rare you see an honest height listed in sports, but it looks like Roger is one of those few.

I just realised thats Glenn in the actually pic up there...my bad... so he did go up to Federer obviously (sorry for overlooking that)... but a couple points.... you cant see where federers head ends because of the cap, but it does not look like a 5 inch difference at all. And its harder to judge someones height the greater the gap is (ie for Glenn to differentiate between 6ft and 6ft 1 at 5'8).

Guys, they just quote the heights in shoes.. it happens all the time in sports. Trust me, people all the time think im 6ft 1 or 2 and im 6ft. Its not a matter of agreeing with Glenn or not... the ONLY way to verify is to see them in person. I saw Roddick in person, but I can only say what i think about federer since i didnt actually go up to him, but look at the pics and on TV, comparing to a 6ft Roddick, they are the same height in all of them.

I saw Thierry Henry and Federer standing side by side and they were pretty much the same height. Henry has always been listed as 188 cm and i think its pretty accurate in relation to other soccer players. Tiger Woods was also there, and he was clearly shorter than Henry and Federer. So if Federer is 185 then Woods is 180. My guess is Woods is about 183 and Federer is about 188.

Yeah, that pic is screwy because Federer also looks the same height as Ljubicic, who is 6'4". So Federer is either on his toes, or there is something up there. Roddick is standing next to Haas, who is 6'2", and Roddick looks taller.
But for some reason I still think that Federer is maybe 6'1.5". They had him listed as 6'2" on ATPtennis.com for a while. Who knows.
