Ernests Gulbis remains a Latvian sensation. His tennis simply shows itself as sensational on occasion, for the duration of a tournament or a match or two. He was once considered an entitled brat but fended off that distinction (whether fair or not at the time), largely thanks to some scintillating play. But he has since regressed at times to make that appear a rather adept moniker. That said, there was really no excuse for his vexing behavior at the Monte Carlo ATP event, in a match against Argentina's Juan Monaco, who proceeded to scold him after the third movement of his symphony of shame:
