It should have clearly gone to Tom Brady (New England Patriots NFL quarterback). Looks like this award is totally biased towards Europeans. Wonder why they call it "world sports awards".

No offence pal but American Egg ball is exactly what it says on the tin,AMERICAN ONLY.

I know you guys across the pond think that any sportsperson you have in any sport is automatically the best in the world but that is not the case especially when its a sport which is effectively played in ONE country.

I hate to break it to you guys but the world does NOT revolve around you,regardless of how much you think it does.

I hope Roger Federer goes on to win the French Open and eclipse every tennis record he can! He is a class act and seems like an all round level headed decent bloke.

A very nice fillip for Federer, particularly given his AO exit.

-The interview he gave revealed a slightly sensitive Federer but his subsequent statement of intent re going on to play til he's 35 (contra Murray's silly comment on Federer's demise) seems to show that he's thinking positively [again]).

-Interesting that Djoko didn't get best promising newomer etc.

Best Sports Impressionist -a category for next year?

-I mean, what must his parents think? -Well, really!

-Now, what do you think caused the voters to pass him over in preference to Hamilton who calmly handled the Alonzo business. Hamilton pipped Nadal also as, I suppose, you can't be the best newcomer twice in a row. -Makes sense.

-Are Djoko's impressions & family antics already/ finally costing him, you have to wonder.

he should never have won that award

Phil 'the power' taylor is a greater sports star than tiger woods

Believe me, by the time Roger Federer retires he would have won the French Open i believe there is a first time for everything, who is to say he will never beat Nadal in a french open final.This is the greatest player ever he will find a way to win it.

Pathetic.
Grow up - you may not like golf as a sport, but to question Tiger Woods as a great sportsman and even to say that Phil Taylor is greater is..well, I can't really put it into words.

You may have written it just to envoke some controversy, but really, you just end up looking quite sad.
