Ostapenko throws her racket at a ballboy

the ball is to far to get to.. the racket throw was intentional

Yeah, thats my guess. And I think the other player should let the umpire decide.

it doesn't matter if she didnt mean to hit the ballboy she intentionally threw the rachet therefore should of been disqualified.

The empire lol

So if I get a gun and fire it in to a crowd of people but not aiming for anyone should I be punished? I wasn't intentionally trying to hit anyone.

+Anoop Kumar She didn't want a point penalty. She wanted the opponent to lose the entire match!

+Anoop Kumar Exactly my thoughts! She put up more of a stink about it than the ballboy did! She couldn't give two shits about if the ballboy was ok. She wanted an easy win and that's pathetic.

+Anoop Kumar She's just a big drama queen. I mean she almost cried on the court. WTF!!!

+Anoop Kumar So true>>>>

Ball kids aren't allowed to say she threw it at the unless it is obvious because it will look bad

Came out worst?? She won. I don't even watch tennis anymore or know either one of these

She's a trash ball

There was harm, and that was a foul. She didnt even apologize

@@TygerHillis She gave an apologetic wave. Is that not good enough where you're from? Does she have to grovel at his feet for it to be a proper apology?

@@chaosPneumatic yes. Yes, she does.

@@TygerHillis Just how soft are you, then?

so true :')

Exactly!

Completely wrong. She wanted the right call to be made. The shock it wasn't, caused her to lose control and forget she isn't the judge. It was all emotions. Not tactics.

Tayden I bet she was spoiled as a child. Did you see her rubbing it in her face at the end of the match. Poor sportsmanlike conduct by both of them. Millennials...

Ya I feel the same

Thanks i wouldnt have looked that up. I feel redeemed. Broady was clearly the disgraceful one.

Cheers for generalising mate, no true sportsman would want to win because of this but of course since she’s British she wants to because she’s greedy. What a tosser

Exactly

Dave Olly Just another idiot with an inferior complex over the British. ignore him

She threw her racket at the ballboy so there's no denying that she should of been DQ. She didn't mean to hurt him but it's gross disrespect. That ballboy is just doing a job. He isn't being paid to be disrespected like that. That said, Broady made herself look bad by making such a big deal out of it. She should of left the decision to those responsible for making these decisions.

​@@teseu1763This is the first time I've heard of Broady.

I saw her check.

@@ghostdance56 Not the player in pink.

The racquet hit the tarp first, that took the sting out of it, he was never going to be badly hurt.

It was obvious he was fine.

It amuses me how many people are ranting that "she doesn't care about the ball boy." Where does she claim she cares about the ball boy?? There are rules about throwing your racket, smashing your racket, arguing with officials etc that ALL players are subject too. She's arguing that ostapenko has committed a racket infringement, that is really serious, because it ended up hitting a ball boy. Do I think she should have argued about it so much and got distracted and emotional about it? No, she shouldn't have. But all this straw man bullshit that she's supposedly "pretending to care" about the ball boy is nonsense.

Accurate analysis.

The saddest part is that she won the match 😿

Broady is hardly the one to blame here, she have the right to call for Ostapenko to be disqualified.

@@Graziano45 she gave absolutely no concern to the ballboy who was hit with a racket. Her instincts were to try and win a tennis match instead of checking on the well being of a child. Very unprofessional in my opinion

@@philtaylor5592 Saidi is correct. Throwing the racket and hitting someone is enough for being disqualified. Broady, although she didnt give a toss about the boy, its not her concern. She was right to call this out.

Hahaha...so true

hahahah these comments are gold

Not really, She has a vested interest in seeing Ostapneko get disqualified.

@@eaglewinnings8003 Just a jokey term mate, don't read too much into it.

Did you see what happened to Djokovic? He unintentionally kicked a ball and accidentally hit the lines woman, gets defaulted. It didn't slip her hand, she threw it out of frustration. Accidentally hits a ball boy. She should have been defaulted.

Yeah yeah look what happened with djokovici and he just hit a ball slowly that accidentaly hit the line refere... ostapenko is realy stupid if that raket hit the ballboy in the eye he can remain blind...

I agree! Makes you wonder how she is in general off the court as well.

how is it taking the low road? YOU'RE taking the low road by hoping she breaks her ankle. Grow up, little guy. This is professional sports, not mommy's backyard hand-holding session, feelings-circle, lets talk about our "trauma" and try to make everyone else pity us day on the swing set. Do you have any idea how much money is at stake here? Nobody gives a flying fuck about the ballboy. He was fine. Stop acting like he was mortally wounded.

The racket did not hit the ballboy, was cetainly close but the images show that It does not reach him. So it was very unfair and triky try to get a disqualification of her opponenent, like she did

Yes, she got emotional because she thought that was obvious that Ostapenko will be disqualified. It didn’t happen and that is why she almost cry 🤣

@@michelemasini569 ostepenko is always looking to twist rules or complain to get an advantage so it was karma.

@@yomo1690 dont you mean Brody? She was the one arguing with the umpire

+dinh Broady didnt care about the ballboy's welfare. She only cared about weaseling her way into get the other girl disqualified.

***** It's trivial because rules are made for a reason. You can't just ignore it.

No one ignored rules. Ostapenko was penalized. This issue here is Broady's ugly, self-serving, self-righteous and dishonourable behaviour. Broady is disgraceful here. No class whatsoever.

+Mick Rumping you are completely right!! so many people ignore that

You have nothing to say about the player who threw her racket?

@@DrummerJacob Why do YOU give a fuck about why I asked a question? It seems YOUR life is the one that is 'empty', lol.

Sailor Man who cares she threw it out of frustration not out of rage or anger at another.

@@weston9106 The rule is that if you throw a racket and it strikes someone, you are disqualified regardless of intent. The umpire erred by not enforcing that rule.

It didn't hit him directly, thankfully, from what I can see. But it did ricochet off the wall and onto him a little bit.

Looks like it grazed him

Of course simps like you would defend her

@@hashimhussain5566 She was angry. She threw her racquet. But not at the ballboy.

No one cares about the ballboy.

Exactly, people posting here have never played tennis before or know the rules. Intent doesnt matter, if you hit anyone with anything on a court you get the DQ, the end. Broady handled it poorly but she was right. If umpires let this shit slide anyone is free to hit an umpire or a ball kid and just say "woops, accident".

Yeah her hand in the air was a sign that she's an uncaring POS. Her reaction should have been running to him to make sure he was ok.

And Nole got disqualified but she didn't?? Where's the logic. She literally threw a whole RACKET on a ball boy and did not even care or ask if they were okay. While Nole hit one with a ball by accident and checked on them and everything, but still got disqualified 😐

@@grantmalone probably cause of the lack of sportsmanship? Could have been a lot worse and that woman that got hit ended up fine... What logic are you struggling with?

@@grantmalone What do you mean lol? Umpires literally give point penalties for unsportsmanlike conduct(i.e smashing racquets) all the time? Which, in reality, harms no one but the players' pockets. Do you watch tennis? "The woman ended up fine, the boy was fine throughout. " So why was the latter disqualified? Both were fine regardless. I'm actually struggling to understand your logic here

@@grantmalone And what exactly is the point of your previous post smartarse? Aren't you implying that the Djokovic situation is justified? Or you just making a "nothing" statement? "Badly hurt" she recovered in a few minutes, or like you said "ended up fine"...You realise enabling bad behaviour, regardless of what happened can lead to consequences in the future? And you didn't even take in what I wrote about umpires cause you're clearly a vain individual. I can see why you lurk here to insult people cause there's no way you can have conversation with other people. No, you can't help - you can barely help yourself. I'm out, peace

What has that got to do with the deliberate throwing of her racket?

@@sailorman8668 it means that, just as if she hit the ball blindly in frustration and the ball went into the stands and hit someone. That's what u call an ACCIDENT.

@@1deonlucas9 If a player hits a ball into the stands full of people, why would it be surprising that a spectator would bet hit? The same with a thrown racket. There are dozens of people who are standing/sitting courtside - why would it be surprising if someone got hit by a thrown racket? In fact, we shouldn't be surprised at all, as someone WAS hit by the thrown racket. It's almost as if you don't think the player should have received any censure/penalty at all, for their reckless actions?

@@sailorman8668 I see your point. It's just that it seems obvious that it's not intentional. It's all about intent. The player hits a ball blindly out of frustration. You think the player is thinking "let me hit someone"? My point is that it was an accidental incident and not a big deal.

@@1deonlucas9 Indeed, the racket wasn't specifically thrown at the ballboy, but nevertheless, the racket was deliberately thrown, which should incur a default point for racket abuse, at the least. The reaction of the other player was ridiculous. Anybody would think that she was the one who was hit by the racket, lol.

It doesn't matter. Rules don't only apply for the top players. All those non top players are still fighting for rank and in turn sponsorship and media coverage. The other player threw - or released - her racket and it struck a ballboy in the shoulder. There should have been a penalty for that and not just a warning. Both of them look like Karens to me but Broady was right. They official went too easy on her. Other players in tennis did the exact same and were DQ'd, but she didn't even lose a point.

@@jcasetnl only question is who gives a fuck?! I just watched Sinner v Kyrgios in Miami, Sinner just went on with his business while Kyrgios went bat shit crazy. That’s a true champion right there, not someone who whines about how their opponent didn’t get disqualified. And from her record, it seems pretty obvious she did that to get a easy win

​@@jcasetnl I'm not sure why you responded with this. He didn't say anything about Osta or her not deserving a DQ.

She was playing to the rules. Upholdiing the rules in the sport is not bad behaviour.

@@beardan76 What the fuck are you talking about? What freaking rules? She tried to use an unfortunate event that hurt a ball boy to get an undeserved advantage in the game. She cried fake tears and displayed incredibly sportsmanlike behavior. Don't even try to defend her behavior.

@@darkaquatus auto DQ

@@beardan76 Exactly, how pathetic is that. Faking tears and putting up an entire act just to avoid having to compete with someone you apparently deem a superior player. Trying to cheat your way through. That's pretty much the definition of unsportsmanlike behavior. It's like a soccer player trying to get a penalty by dropping to the ground as soon as one of the opponents even touches him. Absolutely horrible.

Just keep women out of sport too emotional and they’re useless players anyway. Just put them up against men

***** I'm talking about players and their behaviour. The Seles incident is a completely different thing.

***** As I said, I was referring to the behaviour of players, and not to some knife stabbing maniac. "Pathetic" is not the first thing that comes to mind when I think about the Seles incident either btw, "terrifying" is more suitable. Now go troll elsewhere, I'm done feeding you.

agree robin, disgraceful and childish behaviour, crying and trying to get opponent disqualified. have zero respect for Broady

Well, I wouldn't say most pathetic seen I've seen on a tennis court, but certainly on that court. The way she BEGGED for help with the match by attempting to manipulate the situation should have gotten HER a misconduct penalty.

So she is being criticized for wanting the rules enforced. Are you serious?

nah she was correct. Novak got removed from the game for that type of incident

@@CDogBeast1992 and we all knew novak’s was really accidental and still he got DQed. Ostapenko should have gotten DQed. So fitting cause DQ also means Drama Queen

Lay off it was literally the one of the biggest matches of her career its tough for these players

Either way she was in the right

Broady won anyway and it's a clear disqualification.

She is

U mean bad girl? 😂

She is

huh????

She is a liar and a bully

Exactly. What a f***ing selfish drama queen. It was none of her business and obviously not her call. Not to mention that it was clear that however the boy was hit, there was clearly no significant injury. Ostapenko got a code violation which was entirely appropriate. Ridiculous and pathetic for an opponent to argue for a DQ. If you wanna make those calls, then become a chair ump.

Lol and she thought crying would get what she wanted

Not an easy way out. But fairness. It could have been her and she could have been penalised heavily. Of course we wouldn’t know if that will be the case, that’s why she wants fairness.

@@CountryCowboy008 fairness? It's not fair to petition the ump to DQ your opponent for an accident.

maybe, but if you can get a free win and get paid for it, most would take that chance.

@@sfowler1100 which is why most people aren't true champions. most people are ordinary.

Even as a viewer, I'd want to see this game forfeited. It would suck buying tickets to a canceled game. But there needs to be consequences for things like this.

It's WTA what do you expect

yup

+croydonrudeness Why would she?

+Rajeev Shrivastava exactly, but the way the media span the story was that she had somehow clearly targeted the ball-boy which it's obvious from the footage she did not.

+anmarks92 I agree, it's the portrayal of the incident which I objected to.

+croydonrudeness I agree she did not target the ball boy - but that was a very hard throw and she did it in a fit of anger and frustration. It showed reckless disregard for other people in the area. She's lucky that racquet did not hit the ball boy or worse yet fly over the wall and clobber a spectator. If that had happened I believe she would have been disqualified and justly sanctioned by the ITF

+croydonrudeness I doesn't matter what her intent was. She did NOT need to throw her racket, but if you hit someone you CAN be disqualified.

I wanted to slap that silly bitch to smithereens, too. What a stupid and OTT display of emotions. If you watch this half way (after the racket had been thrown) and only when Broady is talking to the referee, you may think that something have gone really wrong and she is incredibly upset over it.

Who cares, ostapenko will never win any GS either.

Really, who cares about Ostapenco? Spoiled and selfish. What can you expect?

Hilarious. With a 2-10 slam singles record, she could use all the help she can get from her opponent

So pathetically high schoolish of her trying to get Ostapenko in trouble!

Haha so true!

To me Broady is the one to be negative here. Her try to convince the umpire Ostapenko intentionally hit the ball boy is pathetic, it's not her job to decide. She is so miserable.

+Raul Cercea she was trying to get the umpire to see that it wasn't an accident as the umpire wasn't go to punish Ostapenko for trowing the racquet. i know she wasn't aiming for the ballboy but still she shouldn't have thrown it and good on Naomi for stepping up for that ballboy who did get hit because that girl shouldn't have thrown the racquet so i agree with Naomi the girl needed to be penalised for it

+Jordan francis She clearly wasn't concerned about the ballboy's welfare. Her entire rant was about getting the other girl disqualified. Broady was shameful and dishonourable.

For example a few years ago a player was suspended for months because they hit a lines person with a ball. It wasn't intentional but it still happened and the player was punished.
