I've never really had a favorite player, past or present.
There are certainly loads of players that I admire; I try to learn from all of the great masters both of the past and contemporary as well.
There wasn't any particular player I modeled my game after. I tried to learn from everyone and create my own style. I studied past players... Truth be told I never had a favorite player. It's just not my nature to go around idolizing people. I just go try to learn.
