My Take
Dustin Brown is my favorite kind of athlete: the one who values entertainment over the ranking. The German-Jamaican, nicknamed Dreddy, will forever be the man who beat Rafael Nadal at Halle in 2014 and again at Wimbledon in 2015, that serve-and-volley, diving-trick-shot performance that had the crowd losing its mind. Born 1984, all 196cm of him, he played a style that is basically extinct now. He was never a top-tier seed, but ask any tennis fan and they remember Brown. That is the trade-off some players make, and honestly the sport is poorer without these gloriously unorthodox showmen.
