Malisse lost his match yesterday to Ferrer by default here is a short video clip of his tantrum. He was really upset with a line call and then foot fault calls ( I think is what is reported, and the umpire may or may not have over reacted, but Malisse went *nuts* when he was defaulted. Once its open you have to forward about 2/3rd's along (about the 24th min) the clip is just after the bit on Justine. www.vtm.be/asx/vtmnieuws/vtmnieuws13uur_Za.asx |

wow that was quite a temper tantrum kind of funny how the racket stuck to the chair when he broke it He hit it so hard..... the fence/railing separating the court and the seats, and the chair and did you see how the lines girl/woman got up and almost ran away, Malisse looked like he was going to hit her it was scary just watching!! BTW having seen it, was that Ferrer at the end with his arm around malisse trying to calm him down? |

Malisse lost his match yesterday to Ferrer by default here is a short video clip of his tantrum. He was really upset with a line call and then foot fault calls ( I think is what is reported yeah..he was upset with a call..and then told the female line judge..that "it was a whole ball" and apparently she n the umpire heard he was calling her a wh*re..n that was why he was defaulted...can understand why he'd get so upset at her at the end..scary though poor guy! gonna cost him at least 25,000, n he's not allowed to play doubles either |

I can't see it for some reason. EDIT: So the lineswoman thought he said "It was a whore ball?" And he got defaulted? That really sucks for him.  |

Defaulted Malisse denies swearing
Xavier Malisse is concerned he will be handed a heavy punishment after he was thrown out of the Nasdaq-100 Open in Miami for "serious verbal abuse".
The Belgian was leading David Ferrer 6-3 5-5 when he hit out at a line judge who foot-faulted him twice.
But Malisse, who could lose his prize money from the tournament or even face a ban, insisted: "I didn't swear.
"I'm going to try and turn it around because I'm not going to go down for something I didn't do."
After he was defaulted by the umpire, a frustrated Malisse threw a ball at the line judge.
"I threw the ball, but I didn't get defaulted for that," he said.
"The line judge misunderstood the words. Of course I am going to get mad after playing an hour-and-a-half in the sun and I hadn't done anything wrong the whole match.
Yes, I took it a little personal because it meant all the hard work I'd done was thrown away by one person."
The Belgian, a Wimbledon semi-finalist in 2002, believes his reputation could harm his hopes of winning an appeal.
"In the past, I've done things wrong," said the 24-year-old, who was warned about his use of audible obscenities at Wimbledon four years ago.
"I'm not going to say anything, but definitely because of my behaviour in the past, I'm getting a little disadvantage.
"At Wimbledon I did say something wrong, so I immediately stood up for it and I admitted it.
"And I think that's the whole point of this thing - it's that I'm not going to back off, because I didn't do anything."
The ATP is considering the supervisor's report before deciding on Malisse's punishment.
He is likely to lose £5,540 in prize money as well as the ranking points he earned for reaching the second round.
