Hey, I've seen a guy knocked unconscious and a woman almost have her arm fractured with a tennis ball.
At one time officials were considering having juniors wear safety goggles when playing doubles especially.
I wonder if this incident occurred during a doubles match?

And the troubles for Eleni continue. Interesting to see Farina-Elia play in qualies. I hope she makes it. The way things are going, she probably will make it futher than Dokic.

A concussion? There's a tennis injury you don't see every day. Geez, this is getting as bad as the NFL.

Rita Grande was Eleni's doubles partner...
they won 3 games against Sveta/Martina.
