Expensive and stupid mistake. Djokivic has had a great career but if he’d had the mindset of a Sampras or Federer he’d be an all time great.

Lol, guy barely tapped it. Seeing how much power he can put in a swing it looked unintentional.

Ball boy is a cry baby. I’m a sadist anyway. Please try it
I actually think you could help here. How painful is it to get hit in the throat by a ball? Just tell it from your own personal experience. I’ll hang up and listen

Dont watch tennis but that's a dumb ejection. He clearly didnt hit her on purpose.
I can't believe I have to explain this to adults. "But it was an accident" is not an excuse. We have to prevent people from doing unsafe things so they don't injure others. That's why we as a society have rules to punish people for stupid irresponsible things. You can't speed, don't drink and drive, don't point guns at people, wear a mask. All these things are because so many people are too dumb to know how not to injure the rest of us.

A few years ago, Shapovalov did the same thing. Guy had to get surgery on his eye.

You can’t outlaw or prevent natural happenings regardless of the result

Good. Would have been the worst GS Winner in tennis history. At least he didn't get a freebie with every other elite player out

Lol... yeah, he’s not an all-timer. Just has 17 grand slams.

Would you rank him higher than Sampras, Federer, Nadal? Bjorg? Connors? I’d say his mindset and attitude has kept him out of the top tier.

He’s playing in the same era as Federer and Nadal. He’s three back of Federer and two back of Nadal. He has three more than Sampras, six more than Bjorg, and nine more than Connors.
Maybe you can say he wasn’t as impactful, but the fact he’s doing this at the same time two other greats are doing their thing, well, it puts him at probably third best of all time.
