Or you're just obsessed with Dreamy John. How are you doing now that he's retired? How are you going to get your DJ fix?

I deleted my ATP app and downloaded Newsmax* one.

Kidding, obviously.

I started to put this in Injuries & Illness thread

Can it really make that much difference?
Serious question.

Evidently. Several players have talked about it.

I've heard of Newsmax - I know your feeling for DJ will overcome any differences.

This can't happen. It just can't. A player can't do this. This should not be a danger on the court. It's not an acceptable accident. I get that emotions run high out there. Even at the club level, there are tensions and explosive emotions. But you have to recognize the power you have to hurt someone and NOT DO IT RECKLESSLY.

He could have easily hit the ballkid who was approaching, too.

I hope the umpire is okay. And I also hope this doesn't ruin Polmans' career.

You would have thought that after what Shapovalov did a few years ago, and then Djokovic being defaulted at the US Open that players would have learned not to hit a ball in anger. Throw the book at Polmans, and set an example because clearly the message is not getting through.

They know, but the emotions took over. Terrible decision. Find another way to channel the rage at yourself.
