Why is it that in a tennis match when there is a fault loads of people shout out FAULT! This is unnecessary and agrivates me greatly.

Matt,

It is strange that no-one has responded to your rather intriguing question. I don't often watch tennis, but from the little I do see it appears that the shouting of 'fault' aggravates the players, too. Did you notice that Australia won its Davis Cup semi-final against Brazil by five to nil?

Not only does this aggravate the players, but it does the same to me.
