Biggest Whiners on Tour

by THE REBEL SPORTS REPORTER!

You know the guys I am talking about. Suddenly after an unexpected loss, rather than accepting their defeat, they come up with a pathetic explanation that, pretty much, all the reporters lap up.

Instantly springing to mind are the current world number 1 and world number 3. Strange I know, since they have won more than their fair share of tournaments this year. But wait, but wait. We are talking about the pressure of defeat, the aura of invincibility VANISHED!

After the David Ferrer annihilation of Andy Murray, the very pasty Scot reasoned a dodgy groin for his demise. Did he credit the old Spaniards constant mad scuttling attacking game? Barely. Did he remember that the same groin allowed him to do a tricky between the legs shot that most men would never dream of? Nope. And wasn’t Mardy Fish supposed to be the guy with the dodgy groin? We haven’t seen him complain.

It’s at times like these you have to wonder if these players were the kids at school who never had their homework done. We could all imagine Novak Djokovic saying (insert Serbian accent here) “I am really sorry, my gorgeous fluffy white dog, umm, ate my homework. It won’t happen again.” What about Andy Murray getting out of school sports day (insert Sean Connery accent here) “Sorry can’t run, sniff, but here is a sick note from my mommy.” You know she would write one.

Back to Djokosick.

This guy has won a tonne of matches this year and only lost a handful. In three of them he quit (mentally we could argue) but blamed the shoulder. Now it is probably unfair to assume there is no shoulder problem, but why does it only flare up when he is in trouble?

And, and, and…

Remember when he was in the semi-final of Wimbledon a few years back? 2007 I think? Anyway he quit, whilst barely out of the game, because of some niggling blisters. Let me reiterate, THE SEMI-FINAL OF WIMBLEDON – WHAT THE! I would not leave centre court if a sniper had me in his sight, let alone the Wimbledon semi-final. GAWD! Imagine Connors or Lendl doing that. Heck imagine Nadal doiung that. Okay he did it once but I don’t want to tarnish his name.

Now before you all get heated and that stomach acid of yours starts churning let me just say it’s okay for me to sit here and criticise a loss as I’m not the one playing. I am the opinionated guy sitting at the end of the bar with a beer in his hand. The arrogant know it all with a belly hanging over my belt. I am of course, the rebel sports reporter.
