Why he might be annoying:

    Despite his dominance, he has not been given as much attention as other tennis players on the ATP tour.
    He usually looks unkempt.
    He has his own fragrance (from a tennis player? Ewww, gross!).
    After he won Wimbledon, he was given a milking cow as a gift.
    Like most professional tennis stars, he quit school at an early age (sixteen).

Why he might not be annoying:

    He is unpretentious.
    His victory over Pete Sampras in the 2001 Wimbledon, ended Sampras' 31-game winning streak.
    He was the first man in 16 years to win three of the four Grand Slam stages (2004). He did so without the benefit of a coach.
    He stayed in the Olympic Village in Athens unlike other millionaire Olympians.
