What is it about tennis that attracts the biggest assholes on the planet. Its like almost every high level player has a massive stick up their ass and has a grating personality.

Not justifying in any way, but I think it's part of the nature of single player sports, where it's always you against the world. Combine that with a sport like tennis, where 0.5% skill difference is the difference between receiving millions and living on scraps. You see the best players in the world crack.

I am routing for the guy hard, but this is unacceptable. I hope he doesn't do that again...
