Does anyone on the forums actually LIKE Berydch?
« on: November 14, 2012, 06:41 PM »
Alright I'll probably get a ton of hate for this, but I actually like Berdych and in 2010 was quite happy when he made the final of Wimbledon. Sure he can be a bit of a twat on court, and some of his actions are questionable, but he's a good player to watch and some of the power he can get behind his shots is great. Also off court he seems like a chill guy who just enjoys playing the game and having fun.
Cue the hate

Seriously, I like him as long as he's not up against Andy. But even so, I don't hate just get very nervous because Berdy tends to bring his best against Andy.
Berdych vs Federer happens to be one of my all-time favourite match-ups.

Being a world class player does not make anyone a great sportsman or woman. Berdych has a lot of work to do on the latter. Until then, I don't like him.
Andy is a great player AND a great sportsman.
Other examples:
Great player, great sportswoman..........Kim Clisters
Great player, bad sportswoman............Serena Williams

I don't care either way, I just like to base it on his tennis which I think is very good. I'm always nervous when Andy plays him.
I really like Tomas Soderling, whom a lot of folks here detest. I miss his game, and I feel really bad for him with the long-term effects of mono. He said a couple of days ago he's still trying to come back in 2013, and if it doesn't work out he may consider the Senior Tour.

A hybrid of Tomas Berdych and Robin Soderling.

I'd like that. I like both and I agree about Soderling. I really miss him. What a career ending disease.

Sorry - I just can't take to the guy and by all accounts he doesn't have many friends in the locker room either. I think Luci Safarova is well shot of him - and her game has improved since they split up!!

I wouldn't urinate on him if he was on fire.
Okay, that was hyperbole, but I wouldn't have him round for dinner any time soon.

I know I'm paranoid. But am I paranoid enough?
