Federer is so popular that the crowds just hate Nadal for beating him.

In the Monfils match The crowd was yelling vibe le France firing Nadals serve.

At the FO Nadal was actually booed

Bit every time that happens Nadal just gets this scowl on his fce an kicks the crap out of anyone in his path.

Except for when he played against the mighty Soderling.

Then when he won he was actually booed during his speech.

All bEcause he is just so damn good.

There is some history of the French not wanting Spanish players to win.
Hardly a big deal.Crowds dont win you matches so it dosent matter who they root for.

No, he was booed during the speech because of a translation error. He said that he was glad to play possibly the best player to ever play the game. The French crowd was told that he said he was the best player to ever play the game. Which might seem a little pompous coming from (at that time) a 2 or 3-time GS winner. But anyone who has ever heard Nadal speak would know he wouldn't say something that stupid in front of the press. People have accused him of faking his humility, and maybe he is, but he has only shown the humble side to the press, regardless of what rumors say.

Yes great post those haters in the crowd will be more quiet now. It's nice to see Nadal owning the french players as usual.

People hate Nadal simy because he beats Federer.

He's the nicest guy in the world.....it's the only reason.

I guarantee you Nadal will be liked the more he loses.

So the question is would you rather be liked and be a loser or hated and be a winner?

Or be a Federer......well loved and the GOAT. Nadal can be more likeable if he can control his OCD. Why would you repeatedly pick your @ss if you know the whole world is watching?

Exactly.....wait til Djokovic faces Nadal at some point and Nadal will turn into crap in his eyes.

And more hate.....why?

It's obvious.....don't you think that's a bit pathetic.....

Root for Roger but why on earth would you hate someone simply because they keep winning?

Uhm Nadal is spanish. I mean I know he is lighter than Monfils but he is not white.

I don't think it would be a racist thing. It was just root for an underdog, we want to see more great tennis, thing.

Yeah right.

Have you ever seen a crowd against Roger?

Both the Williams' & Nadal are the best yet they are also the most hated.

I don't know; why would you date/marry a fat girl when you're worth $200 million and utterly humiliate yourself by crying like a little girl when you lose the Australian Open? Some things have no answer.

No I am glad he got married and had twins. Shows some character, even though he by far not my favorite tennis player!

I agree. 100%

I meant, I didn't think a crowd would root for Nadal over Monfils because of race.

No, because they like the way he plays the game, for the most part.

Hate has nothing to do with it. Some styles of play are just easier to appreciate than others. Grunting and wild fist pumps are not everybody's cup of tea.

You make it look like Nadal has never lost before or something, though i don't understand why either..i thought he was a favorite..but just as is the case with the sportsman award maybe people know something we don't?

I'd say they are both charismatic in their own way so charisma shouldn't be the issue

Taking shots at a guys woman is low/pathetic..

Obviously he didn't humiliate himself, only the 20 slam winners on this forum made fun of him for it, the crowd was behind him even then.

They are just pissed because Nadal keeps winning .

R Soderling d R Nadal 6–2, 6–7(2), 6–4, 7–6(2) :roll:

The keeps winning thing was valid last summer when he had that awesome 33+ match winning streak but not now, not currently anyway.

Did that alienate Federer from the crowd? Or did it endear him? Pick your ass in public and we know what the reaction will be.

Gawd, those checklist racists are going to be so obnoxious when Serena plays Kimmie tomorrow. "When Serena was serving at 30-40 I distinctly heard a white racist yell "Come on Kim!" just as she was about to serve to stay in the set! NY is so racist!!! They never support the sisters and that's the truth!!!"
 
Why is he unlikable? Makes no sense. He is the most humble, passionate champion I have ever seen!

Yeah, he's a nice guy. Just like the hundreds of millions of nice guys that aren't popular. They ask themselves why they aren't likeable as well.

Let's see, would I rather sneak a butt pick in a public place or humiliate myself by breaking down hysterically, to the point where I'm scaring the people around me? Hmmm.

Yeah, I'll go with the butt pick.

Sure.Only, the crying dosent affect my popularity and the very fact that I cried was because the crowd's support and love for me after the loss was simply overwhelming.So there's no question of humiliation .

Rafa is like Martina Navratilova. Likely one of the greatest ever, polite, humble, built like a man.. bulging biceps, and all that...just without the charm. Nothing wrong with that. Who wouldn't want to be such a great?

Sneak? You mean do it everytime you are serving? Yeah, that's being sneaky.Must be a favorite hobby. Gives a slight "brown and chunky" twist to your finger foods over there.

Soderling does nit change the 6-2 record against Fed ....an the real reason why Nadal is actually hated.

Oh stop trolling...it's not like they were against when they were playing fed..it seems to be against anybody..maybe they just don't find him charismatic? besides it's not like fan support means much, he wins with the crowd with him or against him.
