This is tennis we're talking about. The line judge was sitting inches away but the professional sportsman couldn't control himself and lashed out like a petulant child. The assault thing is a bit far fetched because there was no intent, but it was right he was disqualified, or at what point of unprofessional behaviour do you draw the line?

This, even Joey Barton wasn't getting into as much trouble when he beat the crap out of Dabo, yet this is something that's being investigated seriously.

I give up with the world sometimes.

Exactly, he was reckless as to the endangerment of others.

It's still not as bad as the planned attacks that I mentioned above and nothing was and will not be done about them.

I stopped following tennis since andy roddick isn;'t a contender anymore. He was the only reason i followed tennis.

I think prolly the british just did this to try to embarass the argies before the olympics and because it is the anniversary of the fauklands war.

I've never seen any other tennies tourny where they strategically place such an old man right next to an advertizing board before, it does seem like a bit of a set up....
