Fifteen-year-old junior tennis player Ida Wobker has been disqualified at Wimbledon after an on-court incident in which she threw her racket into the ground, causing it to bounce up and fly into the stands.
The incident brought an abrupt end to Wobker's participation in the tournament. Throwing a racket in a manner that endangers spectators is treated as a serious violation under tennis rules, and officials moved to disqualify the young player following the dangerous rebound into the crowd.
The episode serves as a stark reminder of the strict conduct standards applied at the sport's most prestigious Grand Slam — even for competitors in the junior draws.
