The Pro Trolling Thread: When pro tennis players troll other pros

Any notorious instances of pro tennis players trolling / annoying other pros?

Here's Agassi making a joke about Sampras' stinginess during the Hit for Haiti exo in 2010. Sampras was so irked he tried to get Agassi with his serve:

This is Oscar Hernandez ridiculing the infamous Dani Koellerer after a victory. Koellerer is mad and approaches Hernandez after the match, who says "Don't talk to me, loco" LOL

Koellerer must have been the most annoying player on tour. Here things get even more heated when fellow Austrian Koubek chokes him:

This one is rather low key, but it was still kinda funny.

Usually Nadal has this habit of waiting for his opponent to cross the net and walk to his chair before he makes a move to his own chair. I remember during one match against Federer in 2006 , Federer walked up to the net and just stood there waiting for Nadal to cross. After a brief stand-off, Nadal decided to walk to his chair first with a confused look on his face.

I don't know if this is funny, but I sure thought it was hilarious when I saw it.

Lol, I'd like to see a video :)

Not the only time Fed has tried that kind of thing (mind games? :twisted:), didn't he once wait on his chair before the coin toss until Rafa got up?.

Fed plays all those mind games against Rafa, and they never work. Federer ends up walking away with his tail in between his girly legs..........:twisted:

Fed did it to Murray too with that infamous comment of UK not winning W for a hundred years or something.............:cry:

Seeing the video I don't really think he meant that comment about Murray in a mean kind of way.

I don't know, maybe, but I think you can tell he was uncomfortable by the public's and Courier's reaction.
You sorely need a lesson in expression recognition. Both Courier and the crowd thought is was funny. It was extremely obvious Courier was amused and Federer realised he nailed a pretty good joke on that one for sure.

federer is arrogant even when he is joking, that's just the way he is. Remember he said to Roddick in 2009 ''i know how it is painful for you, i myself lost the final last year''.
Roddick looked really p**sed off, easy to understand why.

I absolutely loved that bald headed short Russian Davydenko giving Nadal beat downs. Nadal had that crossed eyed confused look and he kept looking at his uncle for help.

He attempted to explain himself.

HAHAHAHA. You can tell this is around the time Lord of the Rings was in theaters. Both players with their Elf inspired haircuts. LMFAO. Fed looks kind of ridiculous actually. :)

Lol. That was a really good video indeed. Gotta say Goran is one of my all time favourite what comes to his temper and serving.

If I remember right, after there was some speculation to use slower balls at SW 19, Ivanisevic said that he doesn't care; he said that organizers can chance the balls to water balloons, he still is gonna serve aces. :)

LMFAO. Water balloons. That's hilarious. :)
 
I actually liked what Gulbis did. The way Bautista-Agut complained was very annoying. How many times did he have to squeak his shoes to make his point? I have not seen the match but i'd like to believe that he is just ****ed because he's getting his butt kicked and on the verge of losing 1 and 2.


Here's Roddick trolling himself by sitting in the wrong chair and thinking Benneteau is retiring by going up to him during the changeover:

I didn't see the whole Gulbis match, but it didn't seem like he was doing it intentionally at first. The court was really squeaky.

I really miss Santoro. He was such a joy to watch, especially when he matches up vs a player with a ton of power or finesse.

I also miss Roddick :/ He was such a funny and charismatic guy off court.

Didn't Federer annoy Djokovic by sitting in the chair to the left of the umpire once? I believe that chair was traditionally reserved for the higher seed, and Djokovic, not Federer, was the higher seed in this case.

EDIT: Here's the article:

It was at last year's TWF.

not surprised, this is Federer's personnality.
Did you know in 2008 when he lost the number 1 ranking, he asked for not being announced as the number 2 in the world when entering a court before a match ? that's quite incredible when you think about it... childlish to say the least
