Rules are as simple as possible, you can pick up to 10 active players you dislike, every post is valid as long as there is at least one number in front of a name.

Don't mind you updating or changing your votes, but in that case a notification would be nice so I won't miss it for the terminal ranking. Will probably give some updates from time to time dependent on my personal motivation. :yeah:

#1 = 10 p
#2 = 9 p
#3 = 8 p
#4 = 7 p
#5 = 6 p
#6 = 5 p
#7 = 4 p
#8 = 3 p
#9 = 2 p
#10 = 1 p

Re: MTF 2017 Most Disliked Player

Wasn't there already a thread for this year?

Anyway, here it goes:

1. Federer - lucky, inflated results, overrated beauty of style, arrogant, dislike his fans, media darling, sportsmanship awards vulture
2. Del Potro - fakes fatigue, fake personality, boring game, overrated.
3. Feliciano Lopez - ugly game, overrated, slicing servebot
4. Karlovic - unwatchable servebot
5. Isner - as above.
6. Dimitrov - not as overrated as before, but still enjoy watching him lose.
7. Monfils - clown, overrated talent.
8. Paire - tanking clown, would rank higher if he were more relevant.
9. Raonic - not as relevant this year, also seems to bot less than before.
10. Gasquet - vultures 250s and is a non-entity against the best players, depressing to watch.

Honorable mentions: Nishikori, Fognini

Re: MTF 2017 Most Disliked Player

This thread is never going to work though as everybody is only going to put the other members of the Big Four (bar their fave) at the top :facepalm: That said though, if Fed wins this at least we won't have to put up with Nadal fans saying how "Fedtards" dominate the forum, if that is true then surely Rafa will win this :shrug:

MTF tradition: this thread has gone on every year for a long time and I think from memory Nadal topped it, the rest of the big 4 also get mentions. But there are still other players like the 'servebots', 'pushers', 'bad sportsmen and tankers' etc.

Re: MTF 2017 Most Disliked Player

I have none of the Big 3 on my hating list, but that may be a clearcut exception based on TopFedFan's concern.

1. BabyFed - overhyped for years as the new Fed. Not worthy for that nickname at all. Shameful.
2. Berdych - the perfect athlete, the perfect textbook tennis player, the perfect model wife - with consistently crappy results and crumbling when he meets the big shots.
3. Fognini - totally ego spoiled Italian mammas boy who has been told he is the world's most wonderful bambino ever +1 million times under mamma's loving skirts.
4. Isner - boring Bot that is not even close to the hyped "Awesome American Power" and savior for the resurgence of US tennis.
5. Tomic - spoiled teenage attitude problems up everybody's ass. Perfect day for tennis when he change career path to become either a metal rock musician or F1 driver.
6. Murray - annoying and ugly facial expression when he constantly screams "Come On". Boring slugger style. Excellent to watch Murray matches when it is hard to fall asleep.
7. Tsonga - can't stand his black & white performance curves from one minute to the next: world class tennis in game 3, crap 4'ths division amateur performance in game 4.
8. Monfils - agree with Andrej: totally inconsistent clown.
9. Monfed - biggest baby and whiner, 100% resilient and resistant to strong serves and overheads, rational arguments and logic regardless of surface. Also very poor passing shoots, especially on fast courts.
10. Rosol - overhyped for onematch wonder win over C- level Nadal - otherwise consistently way below even mediocre results and performances.

Re: MTF 2017 Most Disliked Player

Only people with all 10 votes should be counted. If not, I would like to change my list to have only top 3.

7. Monfils
8. Thiem
9. Tomic
10. Janowicz

Off the top of my head anyway, not really 100% sure on this, might update later on

I would rate Tomic a lot higher but he's really too irrelevant at this point for me to rate him high

6. Murray
7. Thiem
8. Tomic

Took out Goffin and added Troicki who for some reason I forgot. I sympathize with Goffin more after his injury derailed his season a bit and his bendover in the SF at Basel was epic and very acceptable :devil:

Re: MTF 2017 Most Disliked Player

1. Djokovic
2. Nadal
3. Sock
4. Carreno Busta - had no place whatsoever in the USO semi, let alone Top 10.
5. Coric
6. Dolgopolov
7. Troicki
8. Tomic
9. A. Zverev - from favorite to disliked - he just rubs me the wrong way
10. Stakhovsky - just have forgotten about him last year but he was kind of lurking over there on the bench


No Cilic this year - during the Wimbledon final I made a vow that if he doesn't retire (he was definitely hurting), I will not include him in my "hated list" at least for a year.
Muller and Kyrgios - for their distinguished services to tennis and society in 2017. Murray was only included in the last second last year, and it was before he dethroned Nole and became a deserved No.1 and Sir Andy.

I include my 2016 list just for amusement purposes - some of my comments were hilarious (-ly wrong).

1. Djokovic - all that's wrong with tennis
2. Coric - all that will be wrong with tennis
3. Kyrgios - just...shut...up
4. Tomic - Australia can do so much better (see above)
5. Troicki - look at his face...look at his game...on the other hand - no, don't
6. Cilic - biggest fluke of a slam winner, and if people continue to mention him and Stanimal in the same sentence, I just might lose it...
7. Sock - a very punchable face as well
8. Dolgopolov - just don't like him
9. Muller - what's the point of being a servebot, if you're useless vs. the top players?
10. Murray - Nole's bitch

Notable changes to last year:
- No Raonic - I mentioned already last year that he's starting to grow on me, if he is healthy, he might end on my Liked list
- No Nadal - he's become too irrelevant to hate
- No Nishikori, Berdych, Monfils - not that I started to like them but I just find I hate the guys above more:)))

Re: MTF 2017 Most Disliked Player

1- NISHIKORI- cheated big time at the olympics against Rafa taking a 20 minute shower before the deciding set, absolute disgrace of cheat and a pointless player.

2- FEDERER- an arrogant scumbag fraud who is lauded as the great players ever but won very little slams while rafa and djokovic were at their peak years.

3- A. Zverev- Very unlikeable. No need to fist pump after every point like Sharapova. Pathetic performances in Grand slams thus far but has a very high opinion of himself.

4- Cilic- a drug cheat and crybaby who quit after a set of the wimbledon final against federer.

5- Dudi Sela- Israeli ( I wont get political here so I will leave it at that).

6- Djokovic- I don't actually dislike him but his need to be liked by the crowd is cringeworthy, especially his licking up to the french open crowds for years- that aside he is a good guy and the most gracious loser in the game.

Re: MTF 2017 Most Disliked Player

OK, I wasn't going to descend to this, but I see how much fun it is, so:

1) Federer: for his (predominantly)obnoxious fan base, for the sycophantic drooling he has inspired in the tennis "media", for his poor sportsmanship, for the crying scene, for his ballerina ways, for his slam, bam, thank you mam brand of tennis, for all the miserable GOAT cheese I have had to look at on the forums and on the broadcasts I didn't mind Fed at #3 with no GOAt debates in action, I almost liked him

2) so hard to choose after that, I feel so purged, um, sometimes Murray. When he doesn't know his place, and think he belongs in the Big 3. For not just being grateful to be a placeholder #1 for awhile. For his boring defensive game. For his chronic bad mood on court, for his berating his box for not cheering in the correct manner for him. there were times I disliked Murray more than Fed

3) All Big servers. Sorry, they bore me, even the ones I like personally, like Milos and Sam. I hate watching someone outplay them by a huge margin, while they keep the score even with aces. zzzzzzzzzzzz

4) Hewitt. He's not active but I can't resist. I found him ech.

5) Ryan Harrison, he has a bratty game

6) Nick? I'm not sure I actually dislike him, but I should. He adds to the intrigue of the feild, and can be useful sometimes beating the ones I dislike more. His attitude is execrable but at least he's honest about it, he was fat as a kid, and wore a f*ck Trump t-shirt. I am still on the fence here.
