Aussie
tennis player defends match point with the
wrong end of the racket
If you're going to lose, do it
with the style of a sullen teenager.
Australian
tennis player Bernard Tomic, 23, did just that on Tuesday, deciding for some reason to hold his
racket in reverse while trying to "defend"
match point at the Madrid Open.

The world number 22 tried,
with the least possible amount of effort, to hit back the serve of Italian Fabio Fognini who was up 40-0 in a 5-4 set. Predictably, the ball sailed past the ridiculously small surface area of Tomic's

Tomic could have tried to win back three points in quick succession given he wasn't losing by that much, but nah, screw it.*Tomic's appetite for bad behaviour has been
a lingering issue for years, varying from accusations of lack of sportsmanship to getting arrested in Miami.
