    Yeah, I feel sorry for the lad, he's only 17 and was clearly an accident (esp. based on the the previous shot he played he could dream of that sort of accuracy).

    Could have been really. really bad if it had hit the Umpire in the eye though.

    Yeah, that Timmy one is hilarious, as is his defence at the time that the girl had just ran in front of him (a ball girl, running across the net, after the ball had gone dead - who could have imagined it..!)

    The other one that I recall was Nalbandian in the Queens Final, which out did them all.

        I saw it again this morning.

        Unprecedented levels of on court violence. The look on the poor line judges face.

            Typically, Kyrgios loses to Querrey in the semi.

            Watching Andy in the final of the Dubai Championships, looks back to his best set and a break up v. Verdasco.

            Murray extends his lead at the top of the rankings with a win here.

              Djokovic beaten again (by Kyrgios) - what's happened?!

              And Fed crushes Nadal - third win over Nadal on the trot

                Do these guys actually get a break? It seems like as soon as one season ends, the next begins.

                      My 11 year old daughter (12 next month) has been asked to train with the ladies adult team at our local club (with a view to playing for them this season)

                          I am still injured

                          Was hoping to be fit to start playing in the teams myself but not even started the fitness work, and its only a few weeks till the season starts

                          I still think I would beat her though

                          She's improved dramatically in the last few months after plateauing for a period

                          I am hoping that the step up to training and perhaps playing for the adult teams will step up her level again. She was asked last year to play for the ladies adult 2nd team at our old club but I felt she was too young. This year shes grown a hell of a lot physically (shes 5ft 6" and much stronger now) and mentally, so comfortable with her training with the adults and I will discuss with her coach if and when she is selected to play

                          I dont want to push her, but the coaches are eager for her to step up and dip her toes into the adult leagues even if it is for one of the lower teams

                            I'm still injured also. Every time I get to playing well I get injured

                            Sounds encouraging with your daughter, I guess the key is that she keeps enjoying it whilst improving.

                            My son is 7 and gets so frustrated with learning it, they are trying serving and because he can't do it instantly he gets incredibly frustrated. trying to teach him the improvement comes with dedication and practice - not easy..!

                              Konta is Miami Open champion. Beats Wozniacki 6-4 6-3, now world number 7 & no 2 in the 2017 race. Ace.

                                She's going to win a slam for sure

                                Which will take some of the spotlight away from Andy
