Well, what ever you think of Hewtyn, he sure knows how to fight out a match. Good win and good on 'im.

He's still a wit

[xr6t ute]

He is a top sportsman, no one can doubt that. But im not a big fan of him because he comes across that hes up himself. He didnt even give nalbandian a mention in post match interview to say it was a tough match.

He's a Aussie representing Australia

TOP BLOKE in my book

[JoeG]

He's certainly near the top of the "really needs his head punched in" list......just IMO.

I don't like Hewitt however when he plays I want him to win. Not for himself but for Australia. Doesn't matter who is playing unless it's Pauline Hanson, then I will want them to win.

He's Common's are pathetic. Who is he yelling that too? The other player after he stuffs up?

Sure he's a great player but a great sportsmen? What's the definition of a great sportsman? Someone who wins a lot but is an as*hole in the process of doing so?

When Hewitt starts losing his touch, then the Australia people won't find it hard to forget him.

That's my 2 cents worth.

Go Alicia Molik!

Until he sends a cheque to every Australian when he wins, I feel he playing for and with himself.

He is playing for his own glory simple as that. Schumaker drives for Ferrrari and not Germany!

Hes not a bad player though but is playing for himself and that's very obvious.

Although his C'MONS annoy the sh*t out of me, you must say they are good for psycing out his opponents, if him doing that is bothering them and putting them off their game then that's just aother tool to help win, they are the elite in that sport and someone yelling out to gee themselves up shouldnt bother them. But it sure annoys me.

p.s. Maybe he is yelling them at Bec Cartwright, as in. "CMON, please touch my willy."

I'd agree there Dally, a heart the side of a Caraway seed, similar in ticker dimensions to Pat Rafter & Kieran Perkins, NO HEART

Hewitt would do himself a good service if he took notice of the sportsmanship shown by other players. One of the most entertaining matches so far has been the Federer / Suzuki match. During this match, the Japanese player applauded some of Federer's shots and Federer in turn, acknowledged the applause.

This is appreciated by both the players and the fans.

During the Blake / Hewitt match, Blake acknowledged one of Hewitt's winning shots and Hewitt chose to turn his back on him and play the "come on" routine. I take offense at Hewitt's cockiness when he is in front and sourness when behind.

You don't see the "come on" routines and bouncing on the toes until the point has been won. It is easy to offer the challenge once a point has been completed. ( Much like a person who can't volley for crap, racing to the net after the ball has beaten the other player )

To me, the best thing that Hewitt could learn is a sense of humility.
