Roger Federer Gets Angry at Parisian Crowd

I don't think I've ever seen Roger Federer this angry!  While in a second set tiebreaker against Juan Martin del Potro he yelled "SHUT UP!" at someone in the crowd for yelling "out" during the point.  Check him out at around the 30 sec mark.  Yikes!

Before hitting or after hitting a backhand down the line, I thought I heard a fan yell "out". It was loud enough, that for a second, I didn't know where it came from, a linesperson or fan.

Yeah some moron in the crowd yelled out which obviously made him lose his concentration. I really don't see anything wrong with this. These guys are human, after all, the idiot needed to be told to put a sock in it, and I bet he's not going to be doing that again at any match. It's disrespectful, and Federer definitely doesn't need to be disrespected on a tennis court when he's trying to play his game.

the weren't "making noise" someone screamed "OUT" after that floating backhand slice landed in the corner..

You guys are making it seem like I think Fed was wrong about yelling shut up, I understand why he did it, I've just never seen him that angry and that's why I posted it. Cheers!

When you omit the fact that fan screamed "OUT" your leaving out a very important piece of the story.. It being reported "Federer yells shut up because he lost the set" or "Federer Gets angry at Parisian crowd" as you did... No he was angry because someone yelled "OUT" mid point.. Thats the headline.. And if you want a spicy headline then don't leave it out of the write up at least .. good grief... If it was one of your favorites you wouldn't have..

I thought I explained why he got mad, it was more than just the OUT, it was all noise. I would have done the same no matter who it was that was playing.

Jon- If you makes you feel better, I changed it, but really, I think you are making a big deal about nothing.
