Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What country does Lleyton represent?

Answer: Australia

Yep, the land down under. Hey, so is the crocodile hunter!

2. Lleyton played against what practically unknown player in the Championship match?

Answer: David Nalbandian

He's the Argentinian that lost terribly to Hewitt. But you can't blame him, it's his first senior grand slam and first time on center court.

3. In the final match, how many rain delays were there?

Answer: 2

Yes, and they were quite annoying.

4. Just to recap one of the most interesting event I saw, what color was the sheet that was used to cover the streaker at the championship match?

Answer: red

Right before they started played after a rain delay, some guy decided to run naked across the court (and he managed to somersault the net as well!). I wonder why it took them so long to get the blanket around him?

5. In the semi-finals, Hewitt played what Englishman in a very anticipated match?

Answer: Tim Henman

It was a good match. It had been a very long time since an Englishman had gotten this far, and all Great Britain's hopes were put upon Tim. But Hewitt pulled it out 7-5, 6-1, 7-5.

6. In all his matches, Lleyton managed to defeat his opponent in 3-straight sets, except one. Who did he play against?

Answer: Sjeng Schalken

In the quarter-finals, Hewitt struggled against Schalken in a 5-set match, the only one Lleyton had to endure during the whole tournament. He had the first 2 sets, but somehow, Sjeng got his game together by winning the next 2 sets. Hewitt barely pulled this one off with 6-2, 6-2, 6-7, 1-6, 7-5.

7. Wimbledon 2002 was Hewitt's first Grand Slam win?

Answer: False

He won the U.S. Open 2001, defeating Sampras.

8. He played with a Serve and Volley strategy?

Answer: False

He's a baseliner. The first one to win Wimbledon since Andre Agassi.

9. He is the youngest world #1 (men's)?

Answer: True

After his U.S. Open win, he became the youngest world #1 at the age of 20. Martina Hingis achieved her number #1 ranking before her 17th birthday.

10. What type of racquet does he use?

Answer: Yonex

He says he likes to paint the symbol on himself.
