Why she might be annoying:

    Her last names are pronounced N.R.-R.Den.
    She has small breasts, slender hips, wears no makeup and has hair tucked into a baseball cap, unintentionally disguising herself as a teenage boy.
    During her 2003 semi-final French Open match with Serena Williams, she put her hand up to ask for time. Serena observing this, hindered her serve causing a double fault. Hennin-Hardenne uncharacteristicly ignored tennis etiquette and good sportsmanship and did not acknowledge that she caused Williams' double fault and it stood.
    As a superstition, she steps over the tennis lines between points.
    She quit the 2006 Australian Grand Slam, claiming an upset stomach but she was being trounced by Amelie Mauresmo, 1-6, 0-2.
    She lost 3 of 4 major finals in 2006.
    She got divorced (2007).

Why she might not be annoying:

    Despite her diminutive size, she is extremely powerful, making her the pound for pound strongest tennis player.
    She ended Serena Williams' streak at five consecutive grand slam victories.
    When she was a teenager, her mother died.
    She is the 7th woman in the Open era to appear in all four major finals in a calendar year (2006).
