Friendly, articulate and eminently likeable, Edwards is one of those players with considerable talent who still lacks the one big win to catapult him into the game's upper echelon. He stands as one of the few players Jimmy Connors has ever complimented. Connors, after beating Eddie on Centre court at 1983 Wimbledon, cited him as a "good player".
