Ferrer shoving line judges

[I.Haychew]

I didn't expect that from Ferrer..Ii thought he was a polite guy

He forehanded a ball at a baby in Canada (?) a year or two ago. Maybe he's just a jerk...or maybe people shouldn't bring their babies to a Ferrer tennis match.

Has anyone heard from David on this?

It seemed kind of strange - they made a huge deal out of it on ESPN. It seemed odd that the linesman was just staring blankly ahead while Ferrer and the ballboy were exchanging the towels... a bit in a way to suggest that he was removed from this activity (of where the towels are supposed to be kept during play).

It happened during the middle of the match, so I can't figure out why it became a problem then.

David Ferrer told in the presser that it is not a big deal and he told "excuse me" to
the linesmen.

But, until I saw this thread, I did not realize that this is a pattern for him and he is
not just off on that day.
