Tommy Haas talking to himself

[ivanmrkvc7]

WAR INSIDE MY HEAD.VOICES IN MY HEAD.I AM GOING SLIGHTLY MAD.

[Nicvido]

glad i am german XD

[max231985]

I miss putting on eyelashes, never wear underwear will perhaps account?

tommy haas not wear underwear

[rrebekha]

schöööön wieder nicht reingegangen ans netz :D er ist ne legende

[cbarrett34]

that was cool

[simplemonde]

Crazy hell in his head, pretty ungrateful about his team, and he won this match 6-3 2-6 1-6 6-1 7-5

[unowen7951]

And then he wins the next point :)

[rg84vid]

This is so inspiring. I watch this now and again when I'm about to give up and feel like everything is for "absolut nicht," as Haasy would say....

[harakrisnahara]

Excelente. Gracias CarstenL01

[LadyBellaSilver]

von Psychologie Heute hierher gefunden,

Selbstgespräche steigern die Konzentration und Kreativität, und mildern den Stress,

sie sind heutzutage leider nur ein negativer Vorurteil unserer Gesellschaft,

bis zu 6-Jährige sprechen ganz selbstverständlich mit sich selbst,

Normalerweise versucht man es zu vermeiden, dass andere Selbstgespräche mitbekommen, angeblich wusste Tommy nicht, dass er so nah gefilmt wurde inkl Tonaufnahme.

[trent8002003]

HIs tennis may not be in the zone then. He certainly was :) That said, Tommy is one of my favourite players. Always playing fair and extremely handsome. He never complains agst Umpires or linesmen. He only complains agst himself.

[ribcat]

@Tommy, it's because you love tennis!

[erdoni]

who did win this match? Davydenko or Haas and his imaginary friend?

[Ahornbaum25]

funny that he calls himself haasi

[2010frogy]

great player., to bad he is at his end.,injuries prevent him to achieve even more.,

Tommy legend not like this mug Nikolay

[mechkapechka]

@2010frogy Davydenko has achieved more you fail

[raul2536]

hahahahahahahahahahhaah xDDDDD

[phatschtuff]

Unlike many others, I miss beginning of 21st century era ... true that it was even more step off from s/v style (Sampras' and Rafter's and many others twilight) towards baseline bashing, exemplified by Roddick and Hewitt's alike ... but sort of miss it ... young Fed, young Safin ... and Tommy ... he was a beast back in a day ... if not very unfortunate personal things he had to go through, he'd have gone much further

[mechkapechka]

@phatschtuff just like davy don't you feel sorry for them both Haas and Davy could've been n1 if the destiny was on their side only for a little

[Miloshcheah]

Vents his frustrations and then comes back the next point and smashes a one hand backhand down the line. Pity his career is coming to an end. Lost in the first round of wimbledon :(

you'll always be my favourite, tommy! loved your game.

[AggroZuebeyde]

at 0:52 come on thomas!

HAHAHAHA!

[FlyingDoctor1988]

@AggroZuebeyde LOL

[DanimalLawlz]

Tommy for FO '11!

[solopiece]

davydenko did not win a game in this set after his little pep talk =)

[RFmeastro]

0:52, Thumbs up for "Come on Thomas"

[cj397]

even when you're not reading the subtitles german resembles english a lot

[reindeersonmytshirt]

This video will never not be funny :D

[amb817]

Im really happy he won that match.That little pep talk he game himself seemed to help.Tennis is a very frustrating game especially when u cant figure out a way to win.Good job Tommy!!!

[supertrex2]

wonder what he said when he lose that match against Federer french open 2009 when hes up 2 sets. and about to close the match.

[2hot2funk]

Did Haas win this match? I was applauding after he said Come on fight!

[rjnrf]

@2hot2funk yea he won 6-3, 2-6, 1-6, 6-1, 7-5

[blerandi91]

this is just like you are in serious difficulties and you think there's no way through but then suddenly appears a light at the end of the tunnel

Haas was dissapointed to himself and seemed to have given up but after those strong psychological words he returned to the match more motivated than ever

The way he won the next point was epic ,really legendary

I admired him when he said "FIGHT" He's a true sportsman

You've got to love him

[staxstix]

every single bit about this is so epic. including the sexy backhand winner at the end on top of it.

[wirwerden100]

NUR geil!

[flobok]

The only german player i like

[Digimonking101]

Did toommy hass won the match

[BrotherTree1]

why play tennis haas, u ask that question urself? let me answer. because no matter what, u are a champion on and off court and ur a fighter (evident after u beat kolya here in 5 eventually). and uve already set a massive reputation for urself worldwide and have been an inspiration.

[JashQ]

Reminds me of that one movie, "Cast Away"

[lukeyluke19957]

lol...well he doesnt have anyone else to talk to really so i can see why he would do that

[aznking01010]

fuckin inspiring shit right there lol

[UrbanGuerilla88]

tommy is legend.

[sampleener]

fockn hirarious lmao

[sampleener]

lmao thats fockn hilarious!!!

[Empir37]

wow! Philosophical speech, and then amazing point XD

[stupidintellect90]

wow...how old is the other guy...shouldn't he be retired?

[Philippedujonc]

@stupidintellect90

It's Nikolay Davydenko, actually top five player.

[ThaaWhiteShadow]

@stupidintellect90 He's three years younger than Haas actually

[stupidintellect90]

@ThaaWhiteShadow that's quite shocking

[mechkapechka]

@stupidintellect90 Davydenko is looking old because of two things : 1 - he is NEARLY bald headed and that nearly really gets him to look like some old guy and 2 : he doesn't look that old in HD ...

[honkiemarge]

it was quite inspirational actually :)

[honkiemarge]

Full towel too blow his nose :P

[SpaceEater1000]

ahahaha

[hattrickster33]

He's fighting against the Russians!

[sbernardini]

TOmmy Haas is Awesome! I think it was at Wimbeldon 2009, his match was cancelled and this guy had the heart to play tennis with the ball kids... most people would have just left, but he stayed and made a few kids really happy! What a heart:)

[yxyana]

That he actually WON the match makes this video even more interesting...

[raygs22271]

This is the match I got in on a ground pass and ended up getting a ticket near the players etnrance. Tommy won in five sets and I got thrown out and I got a centre court ticket twice ;-)) What a very good match of tennis. After this match I got a free ticket from Tommy ;-))

[alinerlein]

richtig geil !

[deagmomo]

i wonder if davydenko understood any word. his brother's son plays tennis in germany not far away from where i live and sometimes nikolay goes to tournaments with him and does some warmup ^^ but philipp davydenko does not play that good.

[hungsiuming]

it's a very useful thing to wake urself up, trust me.

[thejack544]

that was very funny

[tennisproderek]

tommy haas is actually pretty buff

[Jakaplof]

Crazy ! but amazing return on the match of tomy haas

[salaheddine10]

1:44

He walked like a soldier ! LOL

[Rafathaman94]

then tommy wins 4 straight games in the set and wins the match!

[iGo0ch]

@Rafathaman94 wait he seriously won??

[Rafathaman94]

@iGo0ch He actually did. He won 4 straight gamesin this set and won the match.

[Rafathaman94]

@iGo0ch He actually did. He won 4 straight gamesin this set and won the match.

[walshy1093]

Do all pros think like this? that was some weird way to psyche yourself up 'I don't want this any more....I don't feel like it.....why am I doing this shit?' Haha...

[pimpincheerio]

crazyyyy

[xxInternetIdiot90xx]

That was epic how he won the point after that little monologue

[BrotherTree1]

fuck yes this really worked for haas.

[SullivanRoche]

interesting way to let out frustration. who won the match?

[xxImSexy7272xx]

Tommy won, 6-3 2-6 1-6 6-1 7-5.

lol funny scoreline.

[arweiss21]

What does he mean "paying people for nothing"?

[dudekc88]

RETARD

[zzzbrianxxx]

He's paying trainers, coaches, etc.

[cleanplasticchild]

@arweiss21 The people he pays to train him, maybe?

[turdferguson2]

think it's a bit of a bad translation. I think he meant that he is letting people down who paid good money to watch him.

[Joansean]

@turdferguson2 Nope, the translation is spot on, He says 'ich zahl leute fur nichts' which means that he pays people for nothing.

[turdferguson2]

ohh ok...well maybe he means he's paying his coach/staff for nothing...

[pistolpete58]

@turdferguson2 obviously, who else?

[Angelah2528]

I like Tommy. This is his way to release the frustration. He once said that tennis is tough in a way that you are always alone (on the court). It is not like other sports that you can talk to your teammate or coach and they can share your feelings. I totally agree. Thanks for translating the monologue.

[StokaXXL]

@Angelah2528 He pumped himself up and then ripped that backhand down the line! :D

[gabe228]

@Angelah2528 except for women's tennis, or at least the new generation low skill women who are allowed to have coaching time during match once or twice.

[blablabaldddd]

surely he won this match ... was realy amazing cause davy is not the favourite player of hasi.... lol wieso,weshalb,warum....

[TheMaik1994]

did haas win this match?

[Hobbygardener2010]

lol lol lol Haas is the man...just tonight at Aussie Open he broke a racket again :)

[uiop1]

my hero!

[TuskaDogLover]

I'd like to try this way of motivation during my matura exams, unfortunately, talking to yourself is forbidden. Maybe at the exam in German?

[XpArRaZzX]

" Pmsl...."you're a retard" Nutter!! :L

[fourIyn]

wie geil is das den

haasi^^

tommmy roxxxx

[BanannasAnna16]

The funny part is that Davydenko speaks German and understood every single word.

[jackichardy]

@BanannasAnna16

lol

[keijimuto]

@BanannasAnna16

So what, he didn´t offend Davydenko a single bit.

[BanannasAnna16]

I know .. but I find it quite amusing when my opponents talk to themselves -- and I mean I'd crack up if someone would call himself a retard sitting right next to me.

[blerandi91]

no i do'nt think he understood himeb cause he was far from  mihmaybe about 5 or 6 metre saway

[MeckelBot]

thats some deep introspective and philosophical shit. Gotta love it

[turdferguson2]

You retard, you can't lose :)

[Prenisonona]

Tommy = legend! :)

It's so funny this world of tennis, humanity in detail. Love it.

[kinr03340]

Haha I was watching Haas vs Andreev match at Wimbledon 2009 and he never spoke to himself because I was right behind him from his chair.

[tvtotalforever]

tommy haas is zwar net der erfolgreichste aber immernoch der beste spieler den deutschland jeh hatte!

[N4rcol3psy]

davydenko lives in Germany,he knows German,so he probably laughted in himself

[V1kingMetalFreakBACK]

Tommy Haas gehört sicherlich zu den besten und charismatischsten Spielern, die wir je hatten.

Ich hab immernoch Gänsehaut von seinen Satz am ende:...aber du gewinnst das match. du kannst nicht verlieren. komm. KÄMPF. und dann diese wunderbare rückhand, sein genialster schlag in seinem repertoire.

Seine epischen spiele gegen die "russiche ballwand" sind jetzt schon klassiker, genau wie sein wildes wesen

[christianozutho]

du sprichst mir aus dem herzen.. exakt so ist es!

[BrewokGanas]

self 1 is talking to self 2

[androc75]

Gotta love tommy : )

[blockxerin22]

did he heard what the Fans scream??

but he's so cute

NO Tommy you aren't a retard

[fungamesss]

does davydenko speak the same language? even if he doesnt id think haas was freakin crazy haha

[7Caker]

i love yoou

[Bobby61189]

He was right, he did win this match. Tommy won this match 7-5 in the fifth set.

[sanfrei05]

haha EPIC!

makes it seem like he has 2 personalities, talking to himself like that

[hugoboss1111]

it could be a commercial!

[ultrafantaoli]

i misread it as " "taking to himself"

[flobok]

der hammer!!!!

[JamieOwen3]

HAHA hilarious calling himself a retard then telling himself he can't lose lol tommy what a great character!

[adobo777]

Really hope Haas wins a slam before retiring.

[PrinceAJStyles]

Ha, ha, ha!

That is so funny!

I am from Switzerland and I am able to

understand every word!

Haas is an excellent player when you

see his playing style!

He is a former world number two!

But unfortunately he was injured too much

and he has some problems with his

self-confidence!

[cys12141]

@adobo777 better to hope that all the top thirty players get badly injured at the same time.

[adobo777]

@adobo777 lol yah

[ReisKorn1]

what a backhand shot at the end.... wow.

[kinetik44]

it was sick

[knowyourenemy50]

i love how jason goodall on tennis channel and cliff drysdale on espn2 were commentating and both mentioned this clip about haas. i'd already seen it before, but it's hilarious that it's well-known even among commentators.

[bankaimaniac]

hahahaha omg that was funny

[napajedlacek]

yes i watched it in pub ...it was all ups and downs for both players..Haas ended up winning and got hammered by in form Gonzo in the semis...Fed owned that tournie ..of course:-))

[tbomb9500]

did he win the match?

[FredericoBrinca]

Surprisingly he did: 6-3, 2-6, 1-6, 6-1, 7-5 the only time he beat Davydenko in 5 matches.

[aggbala]

what a character!

[Dennisback]

heeh he ended up winning the game

[aonutube]

"It's always the same. I don't want this anymore. I don't feel like it. Why am I doing all this shit? For what? For whom? Except for myself. Why? For which reason? I can't do it, I don't get it. I am playing people for nothing, for absolutely nothing that I can get excited over it. "

[liights]

Good old Tommy

[BrotherTree1]

that angry talk gave him a jump start lol.....nice bh winner at the start the pt on davydenkos serve :)

[seancourtney1981]

oh Tommeh

[flobok]

so kannst du nicht gewinnen haasi^^

[ItzzzBigMossi]

jaja!!!!! für was bezahlt er denn???? :D Haas I love you

[guggnrossi]

Haasi^^

[speedysam444]

This guy has style.

[romouf]

q chabon crazy

[dopeydopey101]

did he win this match in the end?

[CarstenL01]

yes he won :)

[dopeydopey101]

excellent !

[magicgerman]

ja die deutschen sind die besten aber des ist total geil^^

[jasonjarvis1988]

Other than Haas's opponents Haas was to compete with himself. Either wasy Haas deserves to win a grand slam semi's at 2W19 this guy needs to win the US open.

[kinetik44]

this is great

[hubfred]

Tommy, Du bist einfach der geilste. Ich kann nicht mehr! Geht direkt in meine Favoriten.

[MadisonSkeet]

Deutsch sprechen ist sehr lustig! Haha

[411MaryJay]

Something about that was so sexy! When he called his self a retared,i got so turned on.German are so sexy.

[turdferguson2]

wanna fuck, slut?

[411MaryJay]

Unless your name is tommy hass NO!

[Born2DanceVersmold]

haas won the last set with 7:5 :D:D

[stoeffel1986]

und hat er das match gewonnen =) ? echt witzig der typ *gg* ! zudem kann er ja labern, die reden da wohl nur englisch...

[pandemiCDG]

Das kenn ich von mir auch nur sprech ich das normalerweise nicht laut vor mich heraus.

[rusttrust]

haha ich hab das gleiche problem xD

[crz1]

rm fame

[Pooooldi]

Die haben alle so ihre Ticks! Nadal mit seiner Evian Wasserflasche, die er immer genauso wieder hin stellt, wie sie stand; Roddick mit seinem T-Shirt Gezupfe; etc. Fast alle lassen sich drei Bälle geben, begutachten die nach Augenmaß und werfen dann zwei wieder weg. Aber Tommy ist der Oberkracher! ;-)

[aurelioTMNF]

und wo ist da der trick? der labert sich selber voll um sich noch irgendwie zu motivieren^^ roddick zupft sich am shirt weil ein wenig mehr armfreiheit bei seinem aufschlag gut ist. das hat doch nichts mit tricksen zu tun^^

[CryptolipsTobs]

TICK man nicht trick :D

omg

[aurelioTMNF]

omg ;D

scheinbar habe ich auch diverse TICKS^^

[CryptolipsTobs]

:D

hat doch jeder ;)

[johnsmdm]

I like his attitude...I always was made to feel guilty about this habit...I'm gonna do it more at work, at shopping...I like this...

[mobendixen]

1:08 Wieso, weshalb, warum... wer nicht fragt, bleibt dumm!

Hat er total vergessen, dass Kameras und Mikros alles auffangen? Sehr witzige Einlage.

[Creedchen]

rm fame and nice

[joCkelius88]

schnaubt der da in das handtuch?

[Henning19]

haha wie geil!

[jazzykoenig]

What a match against federer today. Haas is a legend.

[LuCaRiOfan94]

how did he go from "i cant do it" to "im gonna win the match" haas is an incredible player but a bit of a nutcase

[ribcat]

they are all nutcases on drugs.

[MatheHasser86]

sehr geil. aber das hilft echt einfach mal runter zu kommen und die wut einigermaßen loszuwerden damit man sich wieder richtig konzentrieren kann ;)

[rezzarector]

nice backhand at the end
