He hit a ball to the backcourt going to a changeover and nailed a granny line judge. It was completely unintentional, but tennis is stupid and strict about these things.

Yeah they mentioned his DQ as well. I really hope the USO suffers terrible ratings. Hopefully they were looking good and they see a significant drop. It’s the only way dumb rules get changed. Golf and Tennis have some of the dumbest rules.

Why do so many people not like Djoko? The dude is a badass player and will likely have more slams than Fed.

Except when they're not, like in Cincinnati last week.

I like they stick to guns. Now Serena can get some of her bull thrown back at her. Remember when she said it was just because she was a woman

The USTA better do same they did for her

They should not have DQd him for that, and any official with any brain wouldn’t have

I didn’t see it as turned to Tour Championship

So can’t comment on exact issue. But if it’s a rule then call it.

Tirico just said hit her in throat? I don’t believe that

Welp, there goes my futures bet on Djoke!
Maybe I can get a "no action" on the 40 - 1 chalk that I ate on Novak for today's match?

Who do we bet now?
Sasha?

he does some cringy shite and his brand of tennis is pretty boring compared to Nadal or Fed.

And there isn't much room for a third goat at the same time so there's the feeling that he's the biggest threat to the other 2.

I'd be stunned if Thiem/Medvedev aren't in the semis and the winner doesn't hold the trophy. The big hope for the other half like Alex is those two guys would wear each other out. Thiem/Med have shown stones in big matches and even though they haven't won a major, I feel like one of them deserves this.

Would be cool to see Tiafoe or FAA, too.

Ricky Bell needs to go big
If he wins his childhood buddies can come over to court and they can perform Can you stand the Rain or Poison

Cringey ok. Boring? Come on. Best defender ever and many of his matches go through lots of ups and downs. My biggest issue with him is he can be a bit of a mental midget. He’s lost too many finals because of choking.

This is what I think it is. People locked on their fav and hate to see someone better.
