Anybody notices irritating habits being committed by tennis players? Like how my loving Sharapova yells so loud and so much in games ( hey! i rally like her ). Now this is what irritates me.... A player who always touches his butt then touches his face and/or his nose. Do you know who? He must be wearing very tight underware or supporter? Why not get a new one which would be more comfortable?

Yeah bhyjay! The tennis player have a lot of strange habits. I know about who you are talking and it is very annoying. Maybe he is sick, with something which make him to need to scratch his butt. But the most annoying habit of a tennis player is the one who do mind games with his opponents. He is one of the best player of this time, but when he was losing, he starts to do gestures and other things to confound his opponent.

I kind of notice that, some players makes some unnecessary gestures during the game. At first, I wonder why but later realizes that It could be a dirty tactic. Trying to disrupt other players momentum or concentration by tricky tactics. They should play with pure talent and skill. But nevertheless, very shrewed.

I think the yelling game began with Monica Seles. Till that point people used to play a bit silently on the court. Seles started this yelling game and looking at the success that she got in the game of tennis, others followed. Now yelling is almost a rule in the game with both men and women yelling at the top of their voice while playing. Cheers! Ram

Sharapova's loud "grunting" has always bothered me. It is very distracting and, in my opinion, unnecessary. Some players have little rituals that they go through usually before serving that they have developed over the years and that help to settle them down and to concentrate.
