Always be responsible as to where you unload your balls.

Doesn't appear to be intentional so a disqualification seems a little too dramatic.

Haha. Maybe. I don’t know. Either way it’s unlucky for all involved. Shame too. He seemed like a shoe in

Yeah, it was a very unfortunate accident. It robbed us of another chance to see Thiem choking in the final (or big dicked alpha chad Medvedev finally breaking through).

“It’s the right decision,” Tim Henman, who was disqualified from Wimbledon for a similar incident in 1995, told Amazon Prime. “He is not aiming for the line judge, but has hit the ball away and you have to be responsible for your actions.”

Seems like a sensible rule and he clearly broke it, regardless of intent.

It's unfortunate but you shouldn't just be hitting balls randomly when there are a bunch of people standing around the court.
