Asterix (by Goscinny and Uderzo) has been a favourite comic around our household. Murray being referenced as Asterix reminded me of other characters.

Curious to see if posters who read this comic series can equate current Tennis players to the characters in the series.  

Let me start first. Arbitrarily, the format is the character followed by modern day Tennis (ATP/WTA) equivalent. You can use the same character in the comic strip again, if you have a different choice then one already mentioned.

Geriatrix == Federer

To jog your memories - http://en.asterix.com/index.html.en .

Please do NOT use comic characters and equate them to posters on v2.

(PS: JHM, let me know if this should go into the Off-Topic list).
