小德误伤裁判美网出局
Djokovic disqualified from US Open World number one Novak Djokovic was disqualified in the US Open fourth round on Sunday after striking a line judge with a ball during the first set of his match against Spain's Pablo Carreno Busta. Having dropped serve to trail 5-6, Djokovic swatted a ball hard to the back of the court, inadvertently striking a female line judge in her throat. With the line judge screaming in pain as she fell to the ground, a horrified Djokovic ran over to her and apologized. After 12 minutes of pleading, Djokovic's fate was sealed. The Grand Slam rules state: "Players shall not at any time physically abuse any official, opponent, spectator or other person within the precincts of the tournament site." US Open Tennis said in an official statement: "Because he was defaulted, Djokovic will lose all ranking points earned at the US Open and will be fined the prize money won at the tournament, in addition to any or all fines levied with respect to the offending incident." |
