Requested move

The name of this article should be changed to "Guillermo Canas" because that is the name used on the English-language websites of the official governing bodies of tennis, which are the Association of Tennis Professionals and the International Tennis Federation. This is also the name used on the English-language website of Davis Cup. Finally, this is the name used on the English-language websites of the following Grand Slam tournaments: the French Open (Roland Garros), Wimbledon, and the US Open. Tennis expert (talk) 03:43, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Canas mean gray hair in Spanish, you fools. The little squiggle at the top of the N serves a purpose and his surname literally means CANE in English. You leave it out and his name becomes GRAY HAIR. Goodness gracious, if you are not fluent in Spanish than you're better off keeping your uneducated opinions to yourselves. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.33.133.31 (talk) 05:01, 16 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Performance Timeline

The results have been incorrectly edited by a contributor and needs to be changed back urgently. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.111.184.8 (talk) 16:27, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
