Day 5 was surprisingly routine for the seeds and expected winners. No upsets. How disappointing, Wimbledon.
Then, at the 11th hour, Victor Hanescu threw down spit on some spectators. I also heard he intentionally foot faulted 100 times (okay, 4) to lose a game and then quit. Well, he had an injury but that’d make it less juicy. BUT HE THREW DOWN SPIT ON PEOPLE.
Thanks for saving the day, Vic. Now, go away. See a therapist or something to fix youself. Or you know, hang out with Crazy Dani.
John Isner lost his second round match today. Nothing surprising there. The guy could barely walk.
