What have I got to be insecure about? I hate both Wawrinka and Djokovic. Watching them both suffer for 5 hours brought joy to my heart.

Well done, by the way, for admitting that the men you have been with are, essentially, as attractive as dog turds.

Having said that, you're an attention-seeking, lonely man yourself, claiming to be a woman because you think that makes you more 'unique' in these forums.

Sanctions? Really? I love it. I love his passion, his fire, his intensity. I personally think he has a great body but I am partial to the lean types. I love it when he rips off his shirt, I say he should start ripping off his pants too. Oooh!

The big deal is that he has done it before - it's not his first time. It's just a classless, neanderthal move. I am all for intensity, passion and fire but come on, grow up a little bit.

I don't recall the bad boys of tennis (Connors, Mac, Nastase etc.) pulling **** like this.

Once again, there is nothing wrong ripping your shirt off after a long, epic, close match. He celebrated the same way last year after beating Nadal but it didn't bother me at all (as a huge Rafa supporter).

Vote and Comment.
This, I agree wholeheartedly. It's way too cheap and Djokovic has got absolutely no class in celebrating. I was rooting for Djokovic against Nadal in the AO 2012 final and I was absolutely disgusted when he ripped his shirt after beating Rafa. I perceive it as an insult to the player who played six hour long final with you.. I was very happy when Rafa spanked him in FO.

Seriously, I badly want Rafa to be back for FO and give him a huge beating at RG. ATP should ensure that players don't pull out these kind of disgusting acts on the field

How do you know that? looks like you are more insecure. When you don't have a point to make, attack the poster. That's class. Looks like you have an even pathetic life

It makes me laugh when I see him do that. It's completely over the top, but harmless, and IMO a compliment to his opponent that it meant so much to seal the victory.

I don't get the criticism that it "lacks class". So what if it does? It's not an application to send his kids to Eton.

The important thing is that he's not disrespectful to his opponent, and I don't think he was. Everything else is just picking on a player you already don't like for some spurious, made up morality.

You're on the right track to become a troll

It's great to see such powerful emotions of triumph, it's a joy to see. How can the critics not understand it? To survive such a tough match, to overcome such a challenge in a one on one duel is the ultimate feeling of joy and adrenaline. He was forced to give everything ounce of his being, he has sacrificed his life to win matches like this, I LOVE to see him feel this feeling of joy of victory.

Seeing the happy winner like Djokovic, the joy, the elation, is one of the best things to see in sport or entertainment, it's real, it's inspiring, it motivates.
