Degrading Tennis Players..

If theres one thing I cant stand is players shouting "COME ON" after winning a point, its so degrading for the opposition and lacks a bit of class.

I see Hewitt doing it now, Andy Murray is the worse for it.

You wont see classy players like Nadal or Federer doing it because they are gracious.

I'm not sure that degrading is the correct word or description, in fact it's far from it. I've just watched on tv a great womens match between Li Na and Lisicki, the former was 5.3 up in the final set with 2 match points, Lisicki was pumped up and rightfully saying 'come on' when winning great points to get herself back in the game, then Lisicki went on to win a great match in entertaining fashion, fabulous tennis. Please don't take the passion out of it, we might as well be watching crown green bowls instead.

Did Federer not wear a top with the number '15' stitched onto it after his triumph over Roddick in his last Wimbledon final? Is that any worse for disrespecting the opposition?

How about Nadal with his game-delaying antics?

Just saying.

"How about Nadal with his game-delaying antics?"

You mean picking his undercrackers out of his backside?

Nadal takes way over 20 seconds between points but is never punished for it. Why?

I've seen both those players do that, what an idiot.

"I've got an opinion on everything, and I'm quite patronising. That means I talk down to people."

Beat it you clown!

What because you're wrong? If you've never seen Federer or Nadal shout "Come on!" after a point then you obviously don't watch much tennis.

It's your fault for writing a bad article.
