No i mean he called him DOGPOLOV skipping the first L. I understand hotdog is his nickname, but as a presenter you could at least get his last name right
Honestly if it isn't some Anglo-Saxon name then they really struggle, especially if they're German/Russian/French they essentially take a wild guess.
How hard would it be to do some research, practice saying the name a few times and then avoid making a fool of yourself.

In the World Tennis Challence, Dolgopolov stated that the first L is silent, so the pronunciation is in fact correct

Loved how they cut to the Isner/Nalbo match before to tell us how great of match it is heading in to a 5th...before proceeding to takes us back to Hisense where the Dog is playing some no name, early stages of the first.

Seven have no shame at all. Cutting to the stands during a match to plug some douchebag's new TV show is a joke.
Ok i'll withdraw my attack on Hamish will cease on this instance, but the war is not over

He's knowledgeable about all the major sports, not just footy and horse racing. It annoys me how I put up with Griggs every year.
Does sandy know how to do anything other than reel off stats? Joke of a commentator.

You would think that after years of commentating tennis Sandy would actually pick up on some of the tactics and be able to give some small insight into a match. Worst commentator ever.
Even though Bruce is shit, at least he makes an effort in that regard.

Awesome, Hamish in the commentary box
Its a bit of a pet hate of mine to be honest. We see a perfect example again this morning with Lacko. According to Hamish McFlog and his cronies, its "lakko", despite the fact the umpire is cleary saying "Lazko". Are they deaf? Not every name pronounces its letters like English FFS.
You don't even have to research it. His Wikipedia page has a pronunciation key that clearly shows it's pronounced 'Laht-sko'.
What a bunch of clowns.

He's a slimy man, can't stand him.

Have they ever had amphidextrous players who have had forehands for left and right hand?
Luke Jensen hit a serve from either hand, and the Japanese have relished using training using left and right handed players for quite a time in the development of their tennis players

Jim Courier is a good commentator but I do think he dumb it down a bit due in order to fit in with the channel 7 approach.
I think Jim would be great with someone like McEnroe.

I can't stand how Bruce needs to inform Jim about everything.
The other night "OMG Francsca Cumani, she's the blah blah blah blah racing blah blah Magic Millions." Alright we get it, who cares if Jim knows who she is or isn't, the girl probably just wanted to watch the tennis in peace anyway. If you have to point her out just do it, don't carry on afterwards. He did the same last night with Nick Maxwell, its so cringe worthy.
Should we start an anti Hamish McLachlan thread? He shits me more than Johanna Griggs, she might be a shit presenter but Hamish's interviews are bad.

Who is Hamish Mclachlan anyway? Did he play AFL?
Same question should be asked of James Brayshaw? Did he play cricket for Australia?

Well 2 days later and our old mate Hamish included the L in his pronounciation of Dolgopolov. Some consistency would be nice, not consistently stupid
One thing that kinda annoys me, is when they show the highlights from the previous set it's only the highlights of the winner of the set shown. I realise they've done it for years now but it's just stupid AFAIC.
Did I actually just hear Bruce say "It's 6-5, and one of these two guys is about to win this set"?
Profound, Macca. Profound.

I really really wish they would stop showing that 'yeah' South Australian women part of the MKR ads. She does my head in big time. I understand that's the point but this is over stepping the 'annoyance' line.
