It is called working with a system, no exemption!
No be the jaga jaga Nigerian experience where we have two sets of every law, one for the masses the other for the ruling class. It is also clear they respect Newton's law which says that for every action there will always be an equal but opposite reaction.

Djokovic is a victim of witch-hunt.
This wont stop him from overtaking Frauderer to have the most GS

It is not any witch-hunt. The rule states that if you hit a ball hard, either intentional or unintentional, and it hits someone, you get a default.

Don't be in a haste to think somebody is after anybody. It is the rule which have been applied to other players in the past even for lesser situation. Tennis is no respect of any player.

It is not about intention but for players to play with decorum and not take their frustrations on balls and racquets.

Tennis RULE,your tennis racket must not hit a chair umpire,lines judge or ball boy accidentally or intentionally.

Your Tennis ball must not hit umpire,ball boys or line judge accidentally or intentionally when ball in not in play.

Djokovic didn't do it on purpose,but the rule is the rule,just like football you don't pull your shirt when playing, that is a automatic yellow card even if you are Messi or Ronaldo.

The rule is clear, I know. But ask yourself why he was given the harshest punishment which was forfeiture of the $250,000 he had earned so far in the tournament instead of the minimum of $20,000 fine. Besides, the lines judge did not have to go to a hospital.

I don't like Djokovic o, but its a witchhunt.

Imagine that was Federer cheesy
That lines judge would have stood up and claim she wasn't hurt and everyone would laugh it off. That man is LOVED, he broke my heart in the last Wimbledon, I was close to tears. grin grin grin grin grin

Besides, when Serena verbally assaulted the umpire and threatened to shove the match ball down his throat, was her punishment as severe as this?
Or Nick Kyrgios? David Nalbandian? My guy, na clear witch-hunt

Oga, calm down. There is nothing like rule of law in tennis, just a set of rules. By the way, Nigeria politicians are above the rule of law.

You still don't get the rule. Even if it were to be Pete Sampras or Federer, he would have been given same treatment.

It is not whether the victim is hospitalised. The ball or racquet must not hit officials when ball is not in play, this includes unintentional hit. Even if the ball had just kissed her, that touched the official is a default.

Djokovic should rather work on his anger and frustrations. Federer doesn't behave in such manner when frustrated because he understands the rules.


You mentioned Serena, Krygios and David. Have you read the rules?

Krygios and David have been given default in the past and Krygios probably has paid more money in fines than he has won on court.

Serena's outburst was a violation code for which she received due punishment.

Did you miss where I said that the mimumum fine was $20,000, depending on the severity of the assault?
Why was he fined the $250,000 he had won so far, including point reduction from his rank?
Im not saying Roger wouldn't have been fined, but it would most probably the minimum $20,000 and maybe point deduction.

Besides, Djokovic is at loggerheads with ATP because he left them to form his own group with Pospisil

Oyinbo people they don't have God( i.e not religious) but they have rule.
Frankly speaking it was unintentional but the rule of the game say that the official should not get hurt....

This is 2020 and you still believe in match fixing at the biggest tennis stage?
Besides, if you bet on Carreno-Busta to win and the match was recorded as Djokovic retiring, your stake would be refunded.
Where match fixing might exist is in the lower rungs of Tennis.
The punishment that comes with match fixing is not worth it, no matter the prize you are offered, except its $1b which isn't feasible and the player would have to choose between the money and having a good name

The lady sort of looks accident-prone to me though. Could explain why that ball naturally located even when that clearly wasn't what was intended.


Just saying.

Over there they don't bend the rules like we do here which is why those in the privileged class assume they can get away with bad behaviour undecided

It was unintentional but the outcome cannot be separated from the unprofessional act. It is a clear rule that if any staff of the event is harmed by act of omission or commission of the player, it is automatic disqualification.
Dere is ntn unprofessional abt that act bro!

In sport dere is what we call EMOTIONS/FRUSTRATION which can be displayed to a minimum level. He clearly expressed his frustrations to a very minimal level. Jst that the lines ref was standing in his way.
