A non-elite Padel Tennis player, that thinks he is elite and takes the game way too seriously. Loud on court, full padel gear, often with long socks and often with face and hands pasted up to the glass wall while shouting how the opponents were lucky or how f'n good his shot was. They book all the available courts at prime times, so no-one else can play.
