Apparently tennis player Mikhail Youzhny's little outburst where he bludgeoned himself with his tennis racket wasn't the first of it's kind on the sports landscape recently. Is it possible that Youzhny was just imitating the great leader of the Celtics, Kevin Garnett, only with, you know, a much more dangerous piece of sports equipment? I hope this becomes a trend in sports and extends to theTennis Can Be a Frustrating Sport

My favorite thing about this video is not the fact that Mikhail Youzhny bludgeons his face with a tennis racket (though that is enjoyable). What I really enjoy is when the announcer likens Youzhny's behavior to that of Vincent Van Gogh and then -- emboldened by what he feels is a brilliant analogy -- goes on to point out that Youzhny, like Van Gogh, has short hair as well.

Much like Gus Frerotte who lost a head-butting battle to an endzone wall, I don’t get what the fascination is with people banging things against their heads.

This is Russian tennis player Mikhail Youzhny, who got just a wee bit upset during his loss to Serbian Janko Tipsarevic at the Masters Series tournament at Key Biscayne: Youzhny whacked himself in the forehead with his racket, but I'm guessing he meant to do it with the strings. Instead he hit himself with the frame of the racket. After getting medical attention, he did continue with the ...Mikhail Youzhny beats himself up with tennis racket: Tennis Racket-1 ** Youzhny-0

I had never heard of Mikhail Youzhny prior to today, now Youzhny will forever be infamous in my mind for being one of the biggest idiots tennis has ever seen. Now we’ve all seen John McEnroe go ballistic time and time again if he lost points.

I believe this is what the tennis statisticians would label a 'forced error.' After a long point, Russian tennis pro/masochist Mikhail Youzhny was not pleased with his backhand into the net ... so he bludgeoned himself with his own racket . Ouch, dude.

Here's Mikhail Youzhny at the Miami Masters tournament facing off against Spaniard Nicolas Almagro. After ending a long point with an unforced error into the net, Youzhny reacts like any real competitor would: by beating himself in the head with his racket until he opens up a bloody gash [ Heh... "bloody gash" - Ed. ]. The tactic worked well for Youzhny, as he ...
