Title: Why i dont like Gonzo

A few posters have noticed my dislike of the cocky South American, and that last point should show you why. An absolutely amazing rally from both players, with Tipsarevic coming out on top. Did Gonzo smile or applaud his opponents great play? No, he threw his racquet :angry:

Gonzo is great!! Really nice guy, great fun, one of the most popular players on the tour, by all accounts.. :P

He smashed his racquet at Queen's btw.. so yes a little temperamental.

But seeing as one of your faves celebrates his opponents' mistakes by jumping in the air and fist pumping and never applauds his opponents when on court, you haven't got much to go on here.. and Rafa is a really great guy too ;)

im not sure, he always seems really moody when i see him play. Mind you, i tend to jinx players so if he knows im watching, that will be enough to put him in a mood roflmao

When Rafa lost at Queen's he actually apologised to the organisers afterwards.. He felt that as they were paying him good money to be there, he ought to return the favour by at least fulfilling his seeding.

Never loses his temper on court though, even if he can look, well, a bit peeved at times ;)
