I find this very hard to believe (if you're being serious), as it would be very well known within Adelaide and the broader tennis community.

Its a part of the tennis tour, some of the players change every year. Rasheed and Hewitt was a long partnership as far as the ATP goes. Don't get sucked into the media beat up, tryng to make it some big scandal. Not great timing but these things happen.

Based on smac's avatar I doubt he was being serious.

Correct weight my masked friend. My family is sick to death of me at the moment, nothing but smart-ar5ed replies to even the simplest question.

But Molik is a blokey looking girl, I stand by that.

If that story of about a month ago about Rasheed spitting the dummy 'cos a Hewitt Memorabilia item got passed in under the reserve at auction is true, I don't know if his head is screwed on right either?
Did he suddenly have a brain explosion and forget that Adelaide is a quarter of the population of Melbourne?

I was too young at the time but people always said Greg Norman suffered in Australia because of the tall poppy syndrome, Hewitt is definitely having the same treatment with people in the media trying to sensationalise everything.

Abusing of umpires and officials has gone on for years in tennis, a lot worse than Hewitt has ever done and by a number of Australian tennis players who are considered greats in our country. Abusing of coaches happens all the time on the football field and goes unnoticed don't see why tennis should be any different. Not a good thing but not the end of the world. The other things you are talking about are things that happened years ago and has made up for, all kids make mistakes when they are young.

Those kinds of things seem to be all people can come up with as to why they don't like Hewitt. They also say they don't like his parents yet his parents very rarely make comment about anything. Then you hear they are pulling the strings in the background which is a big load of rubbish. We all know the history from when his was younger but the guy is one of the most mentally tough tennis players to play the game ever, got married and had a child. Somehow people telling me he is a puppet for his parents doesn't really add up.

It’s all myth and often a media beat up with Hewitt and unfortunately people just fall into line. Anyway I am not here to convince people and I am sure I won't but it certainly is a case of tall poppy syndrome in my opinion. I think its fine for people not to like him but don't just go along with it just because its the popular opinion.

Again no substance with your comments just insults. He might be a lot of things but the media role out the spoilt line as you do. How is he spoilt?

I don't consider someone who has earned everything himself, got to the top of his profession world wide when he really shouldn't off given his build to be spoilt. If anything he did it the hard way. He has a lot of money but he has earned that himself. I don't see he him throwing his money around to any great extent, still pays taxes in Australian unlike most of Australian top sportsman. Just because he has the skill and ability to be world class at something and you don't you roll out the insults. He was born into a family with a bit of money but they also made a lot of sacrifices, again your above comments smack of jealousy as do most people that bag the guy.

You don't have to like him but at least make up your own mind up and don't be swayed by the media.
