Au contraire, Kieran, I believe it's I who's touched a nerve!
Everyone knows Andre ceded 1995 year-end #1 to Pete by not playing after the 95 USO, and Pete never won the AO when AA was there...
As I said, we'll never hear the acknowledgement from Pete or Fed as to any good fortune they may have had due to the absence of their main rivals.
At least we agree on Steffi!
Cheers
