Not including Aussie.

Just because a player is aussie it doesn't mean that they'll be well liked.

Favourites:
Nadal, Tsonga.
Jankovic - not necessarily due to her tennis, but I just find some of her antics hilarious.

I just really follow aussies for the most part, don't particularly dislike anyone, a whole heap.

I know that i said at the top of the thread not including Aussies because i wanted to see what other players people like.

Most Liked:
Andy Roddick - Not necessiarly for his playing style some of the time (when he gets into pusher mode ie. against Lu at Wimby then he's awful) but more for his entertaing and honest personality, says it how it is, no matter how right or wrong he is and when he does play his good brand of tennis it's a refreshing change to a lot of others and it's a bit of a different style, tennis like Wimby 2009 and Miami this year is the sort of stuff I'm talking about. Others include Tsonga, Monfils (both so talented but mentally fragile to say the least), Isner (long before his marathon win at Wimby), Soderling, Berdych (such impressive power) and Blake was my favourite player outside the Australians for a long time, love his attacking style no matter muggish it can be at times, pity he's on the verge of retirement, would like to see one more special match at New York this year. Lleyton is my favourite player of all time but obivously he's Aussie.

Ana Ivanovic - For obivous reasons but really her tennis was good to watch at her best, pity she can't hit a ball in any more. Clijsters is a good player to watch when playing well as well, so much poor tennis played on the WTA lately, it's tough. For that reason I don't mind Serena as such because she does actually play clutch tennis most of the time, however she's a physco. Obivously the WTA is more about Sam and how she's going.

Most Disliked:
Novak Djokovic - I have explained this many times, frustating, faker who acts like an utter moron on court, i like seing emotion from players but he seems to take it another level and also feel like its being put on. Every match he has some sort of issue, again and when does play awful, it's horrible to watch.

Jelena Jankovic - Same thing as Novak but her gamestyle is a lot worse to watch.

 

[indieswan96]

Fav:
Mens: Berdych, Haas and Robredo
Womens: Kirilenko, Ivanovic and Clijsters

Least Fav:

Monfils - as above
Ivanisevic - Hilarious, great interviews
Safin - as above, met him at the Crown once too
Fabrice Santoro - players player, played Le Beautiful Game

I know he is Australian but I have to give a special mention to Andrew Illie. Watching him play is the most fun you will have watching a tennis match. Used to pack out court 1 at the Aus Open. I remember when he took a set off of Agassi his response was to pull down his shorts.

Most Disliked
Chela - Spitter, knob
Nalbandian - just a knob
Rios - most despised player on the tour ever
Sampras - just found him boring

Women

Clijsters - personable, nice style
Kirilenko - personable, easy on the eye
Ivanovic - as above
Wozniacki, - as above
Schett - enjoyed her on court tantrums, funny off court, married to an aussie
Kournikova - obvious reasons, but had an all court game and was a better player than ever given credit for
Hingis - all court style, cheeky personality, was part of glory years of women's tennis

Most disliked
Henin - Just find her boring on and off court
Venus Williams - Simply have no interest in her game
Schynder - head case, orange juice diet

something dies inside me everytime she wins a match, after letting u think she might lose..

everyone that i know has had enough of serena winning all the time, i was over it 5 yrs ago. I hate everything about her because she and her sister are the reasons we see the power tennis in the women's game these days, dont think she has skill, she never has, shes just too big and strong for everybody and it gives me the s**ts everytime she wins. Tsonga and baghdatis are my favourites, love baggy's party boy type personality and love the way he plays. Tsonga is in the same boat, if he gets his head right he will win a grand slam.

nadal is liked because of the sheer presence the guy has, people are amazed at how intense and brilliant he is. Rios was hated but a smoky in that department imo was boris becker, ask andre agassi what he thinks about boris. From what i have heard he is or was the most pompous arrogant w**ker on the tour.
