Blake,Safin, Ivanisevic, Gulbis, Nalbandian, early Agassi

Blake is the first one that come to mind for me. He is too aggressive and makes so many errors. Just get the ball in man.
On the ladies side I'd say Safina. She needs a sports psychologist to get her head right.

Unfortunately thats very true.

Dementieva and Nalbandian are two players that should have had multiple slams by now.

Nalbanian because he plays some matches where he can make Federer and Nadal look like ballboys. I hate it when you see a player who is gifted and he doesn't play near his ability.

I guess you can say that about Safin also and in the past Henri Leconte.

I suppose Andy Murray also only because he has not done as well as he should have in majors. I have a hunch that may change soon however.

Safin, nalbandian, gaudio, zabaleta and from the last 2 years, moya.

Gulbis is:The number one underachiever in tennis!

Dinara Safina, but I simply feel bad for her. I can relate to her 'issues' with her game. Very painful to watch, and I like her a bunch.

It's not only the passion, after the injuries he suffered in 2005 and some more stuff he'll probably never will make public he was pretty much done, didn't enjoy tennis anymore, excepting maybe the Davis Cup. He kept playing just for the money.

A Radwanska such a miserable looking person, never looks like she enjoys playing the game

WillAlwaysLoveYouTennis · 10-01-2009, 02:08 PM

Ernests Gulbis.

Agree with all... If early Andre (1990-1991 had been like in his later years, he would have 11-12 Slams).

Goran: Had he had the mental toughness of Pete Sampras, he would been a 4 time Wimbledon champion.

it is also frustrating to see karlovic get broken because of missing easy volleys

lol totally agree with you shes either showing no emotion at all or extrmely frustrated, but frankly, shes one of my fav's.

Everyone is saying Safina, but i would have to disagree. I find it enjoyable to watch her uncontrollable breakdowns and simply brainless bashing. I think the best is when her and her coach are yelling at each other in between points and safina looks like shes about to break down in tears. Quite exciting to watch.

Federer can be annoying to watch when he's shanking his backhand left and right. Murray is always annoying to watch.

Passion4Tennis · 10-01-2009, 03:13 PM

For me, it would have to be Monfils. He's one of the best athletes on tour, but he seems to lack heart, and his conditioning is suspect. With the talent he has, he should be able to go deep consistently in slams, and maybe even win one or two.

Or, why does he do this to himself????

Psychiatrist needed.
