I tried watching some the other night, cos I like Jankovic

and the main commentator was scathing about her, then on radio five came out with his smug summary of "she's clearly not as good as she thinks she is, and should concentrate on playing over some pathetic ball boy superstition"

That would Jankovic who in interviews states she thinks being world number 1 is insignificant because she's never won a grand slam

Hardly arrogent

Then the same bloke slagged Djokovic off for the whole match the other day against Bhagdadtis, when he was leading throughout. Commentary like "how many times is it going to take for djokovic to learn that shot doesn't work", and constant "what was he thinking about there", even though the whole time Djokovic was winning. Barely a bad word to say about Baghdadtis even though he threw away huge game points and couldn't produce it when needing to

Both Djokovic and Jankovic have a reputation for being nice guys on and off court, yet this prick commentator has a problem with them

Has put me off wanting to get involved greatly in it, im not a great fan as it is, but I have some time for some players, but some of the coverage has been awful
