Bet some news crew from 9 fry an egg on the court to illustrate how hot it is.
Definitely. It's that fat arse 'high pressure system sitting in the Tasman sea and not budging' situation again. Personally, this weather kills me.
Yer, wasn't he a hero for beating up on a battling qualifier on his favourite court in front of his 'hoons and goons' followers who baited the poor guy disgracefully? I found it just acutely embarrassing for an Aussie tennis crowd. This is not what the sport is about. And our crowds used to show respect for the contest and both players. We even had the ugly Ronaldo 'booing'.
Wow! But he's such an 'entertainer'! But far from a quality tennis player/professional.
Just another narcissist flog IMO. It seems to be their age and many followers.
Showing your usual dubious taste!? Great tennis (and players) is not boring ... but some people watch pro wrestling and think it's sport because ... it's so entertaining.
Anyway, you're welcome to NK.
I’m all for being patriotic, but no one is even clapping his good shots. Finding it quite embarrassing, as generally Melbourne crowds have been very gracious towards good play.
But no, the fans are rooting for a guy who in the 15 mins I’ve been watching has
-tried not one, but two between the legs shots. Both were unsuccessful and unnecessary, a normal tennis shot was all that was required.
-tried an underarm serve which was spectacularly unsuccessful
How anyone finds any of that entertaining is beyond me.
Well said mopsy. What a laughter this goose is. Over-rated or what?
As soon as he starts losing, Mr Hyde antics come out.
Easily talented enough to have been a constant in the top 3 n won a handful of majors by now. To busy being Mr controversial entertainment.
Yep. You can see Medvedev playing into his mind with his hard serves and some shots.
You realise he's 26 and must have been on the circuit for close to 10 years now if you include junior comps. What makes you think he has suddenly found the application or dedication to change?
Resigned himself to being 'an entertainer' - circus performer, who is good enough to make a heap of easy $$ but hasn't the heart to become a serious competitor. Good for having a heap of fun, pick up women and exploit his notoriety while it lasts.
Have a look at De Minaur for contrast. With this kid's effort, application or dedication in Nk's body? What a champion he would become.
Compared to his 'flogness' ! Are you watching? Here comes the slack, easy capitulation against a serious professional.
But, hey, you get the antics, the disputes with ump, crowd, two-way abuse/foul language, the joke 'tweeners' and under-armers. The carry-on to try and hide the continuous weakness of character and lack of real heart that sees him usually always fold and collapse against any quality opponent.
What a tease. Amazed people still get sucked in by him.
That kind of plays in Medvedev’s favour. He likes being the ‘bad guy’. The ire of the crowd serves to spur him on.
Yep, they even cheer his faults (M's) and double faults. No idea and such poor sportsmanship.
