Thomas Berdych booed off Hisense!! Australian Open 2012: Berdych vs Almagro

Footage from Hisense Arena during Australian Open 2012 where Thomas Berdych was literally booed off court after not shaking Nicholas Almagro's hand. I had never seen anything like this in my life, it's just a given for me that you shake your opponents hand at the end of a match win or lose. Personally I think the booing went for too long, he should have at least been clapped off but it just goes to show how important good sportsmanship is in Australia. Wow... awkwardness redefined?

can you put up some video of actual match

[MrDrBulla]

@sagatbalrog Yeah if you want, but you'd probably be able to get the whole match in better resolution from Oz Open website or perhaps elsewhere. I'll upload what I've recorded anyway :)

@bjornsiborgsi Mate you're an idiot. The crowd is booing him for being unsportsmanlike.

@SashaLF138 he showed poor sportsmanship, i think he probably got the appropriate reaction from the crowd.

LOL I remember that match, not sure if you know but I was one of those people chanting for Berdych and singing, the topless dudes to your right. 3 hourse we chanted for him and at the end....wow, just wow.

@bjornsiborgsi If you have no understanding of what happened I suggest you stop posting useless comments. Ignorance is a bliss

[SchleichFan101]

@bjornsiborgsi thats very immature of you to say that, anyway my belief is that no matter what you should always shake hands with the umpire and other player/s, did u agree with what serena did at the us open final 2011?

Thomas Berdych is a rascist cunt !!!!! Glad he's out of the tournament

[Hem3fiction]

@bjornsiborgsi ahhh... you really have no clue do you? You're pretty racist and ignorant yourself.
