There's also been some footage of him deliberately throwing the game.

Maybe these guys should sponsor him - because that's what he is. I hope Tennis Australia haul him over the coals for this - he deserves to be banned from the game IMO. Not good enough, he's just an arrogant brat.

In my view Tennis Australia are to blame = This guys been a tosser for a long time but they keep pumping him up as our best hope. This isn't the first time he's done this crap, time Tennis officials put him out for a few months for an attitude adjustment


If he's the best we got , time to rebuild the model and start from scratch. I wouldn't go watch him even if the match was free.

"If you don't like it, leave. I didn't ask you to come and watch". Where does he think his money comes from? If no one watches sponsors don't get exposure = unhappy sponsors = no more sposorship = no money. Here's hoping the sponsors wake up to themselves and stop paying.

What an embarrassment he is for our country.

The only events Tennis Australia can stop him playing in is by not selecting in them for Davis Cup, Olympics etc.........I assuming all other tournaments he doesn't need Tennis Australias support.

Yeah pretty average comment a gotta agree.......but you could say the sponsors are getting good return for the money due to the air time he receive from the media.

The whole family are retards, IMHO.
When he first came on to the scene with his uneducated rude outbursts, his parents said nothing, his mother actually spoke up for him.
And have you ever noticed his ridiculous "hanger-on" brother,...He's actually worse.
As with a lot of these "young", people, I reckon the parents have a lot to answer for.
And why would he stop, what "punishment", of a worthwhile nature, has He ever received,...it's all just good "publicity" to him.
Pickles.

There has to be a world Tennis body that governs the sport. I am sure they can take some sort of action against him .


Tennis Australia not selecting him for tournaments would be a bloody good start in my books.

Email Tennis Australia and tell them what you think. I did, and I hardly ever do anything like that.

I'll let you know if they respond.

Apparently there is some discussion that ITF may enforce a 12 month ban on him playing tournaments. Hopefully this will eventuate.
