Re: Doha - Mona Barthel def Yulia Putintseva 6-4, 6-2
Crazillo, I think her antics are internally driven, like Safin's were.  Read her Twitter, she comes across as very sweet off court.

Re: Doha - Mona Barthel def Yulia Putintseva 6-4, 6-2
I think there was even an "IDEMO KAMAN LETS GO" from Yulia after a forehand error from Mona to go up something ridiculous like 15-0.
Nice job Mona

I don't particularly see a problem with the celebrations. But do you seriously think they help her as a player? Giving "better" players a reason to want to beat you has never proved a good idea.
I wouldn't say the top 5 are anywhere near as in your face with their celebrations either.

Re: Doha - Mona Barthel def Yulia Putintseva 6-4, 6-2
Now that was entertaining
Mona laughing at Yulia's antics and copying them when she'd had enough of them. It was absolutely  because usually Mona is pretty quiet on court, but that was great to see Mona like that. Made me  with her even more.
Well done Mona ... GL in next round.

It's definitely not internal. I saw an interview with her on TV after she won through in qualifying in Doha and she was asked about it. Putintseva said that she does it to show she she's "a better player" and to annoy the other coaches, it could just be her English though but she seemed like she does it on purpose.

Which if true is the most counter-productive thing I've ever heard. Making everyone want to destroy you is not going to help you.

Which players? Be specific & stop justifying a crude act by a so not talented player
