Top 10 Upset Tennis Players
If you've ever played tennis, you've probably felt the urge to smash your racquet after a difficult point. Hopefully your wits got to you first and saved you a few hundred dollars. This week we take a look at some of the most notorious whiners, complainers and tantrum-throwers in tennis.
10: Andy Murray – This Scot's late mistakes are often the result of mental fatigue. Cool it down, Andy.
9: Kristof Vliegen – This Belgian literally broke the end of his tennis racquet during a frustrating match in Monte Carlo.
8: Martina Hingis – She let the French Open slip away and complained about it until the last moment.
7: Jeff Tarango – He walked out on a Wimbledon match after a disagreement. He didn't smash anything, but tainted his game.
6: Mikhail Youzhny – Smashed his face with a tennis racquet, dramatically letting blood drip down his face.
5: Fernando Gonzalez – Smashed his racquet after a disagreement with Roger Federer. And when you get angry at Roger Federer, everyone knows it.
4: Serena Williams – You saw her at the US Open. Turn around if you’re walking down the same hall.
3: Marat Safin – Famous for throwing tantrums and complaining about points, even during practices. Don't get in his way.
2: Andy Roddick – This American whiner knows a thing or two about not getting his way through words. Still hasn't stopped him.
1: John McEnroe – As the godfather of complaining, you can’t be serious that he would be ranked anything else.
