Teen Star Asks Umpire to Remove His Father from Stadium (video)

This is Amazing!

Can you imagine if we could ask one of our own parent's to be removed from a Nationally televised game?  Or even a heckler or drunk person during one of our pool matches?

Yes, folks.  Check this out!




Australian teen star Bernard Tomic asked the chair umpire to remove his father from the stadium during Saturday's loss to David Ferrer.

The request was made after the 19-year-old held serve at 2-2 in the second set. During that game, television cameras showed his father and coach, John, shaking his head in disgust from the stands.

"He's annoying - I know he's my father - but he's annoying me," Tomic pleaded to chair umpire Cedric Mourier.
