    Yeah, Djokovic was dominating. Nadal was not happy at all about the rain issue, he wanted to go off way before they did.

    Hopefully Djokovic will be able to carry the way he was playing before they went off and get his 4th major win in a row.

    Roddick and Murray lost their first matches at Queens.

    Murray is in shocking form at the moment. Roddick is done at the top level. Think he's ranked between 30-35 now.

    What a tool. I hope the official sues him and the authorities throw him out of Wimbledon. Absolutely stupid and by the looks of it the injury was pretty deep. Technically he could be charged with ABH or at least assault.

    I get worse cuts warming up for football. It's the right call to DQ him but assault?!

    Assault is defined in law as "actions causing someone to fear you will cause / or actions causing bodily harm". The fact the ATP have dealt with it will probably be enough for the police. However it would be interesting if the line judge brought a complaint. Although I suspect as an incident on the football pitch is deemed out of the police's jurisdiction - so too would be another sporting court or arena.

    Liz says he's looking at a suspension and may miss Wimbledon.

    I think its bullshit. The match being ended and losing is a big enough punishment for what was just purely an accident. Whether it was wrong or not it wasnt intentional and to consider throwing the book at him is totally over he top and represents everything wrong with the system.

    The ATP Official said afterwards that any punishment would not go beyond this tournament. He'll probably just have to give up his ranking points and prize money and also pay a fine but they won't ban him from Wimbledon.

    Not what he was hoping for when Maria said she'd make an impact on his balls.
