Tennis player goes berserk, attacks umpire with racket over disputed call.

Tennis Player Disqualified After Meltdown and Racket Attack on Umpire’s Chair

A recent French tennis tournament saw a rare disqualification from competition after Mikael Ymer had a dramatic meltdown and attacked an umpire’s viewing tower with his own tennis racket. Ymer was competing in the Lyon Open in France when he lost to Arthur Fils of France in the second-round contest. The Swedish national’s meltdown began after an umpire declined to call a return from Fils as out of bounds. After losing a subsequent game-breaking point to Fils, Ymer released his anger in a fashion destructive both to property and good sportsmanship.

What a dramatic ending to a fascinating contest…
