Wimbledon junior disqualified after racket toss into stands
Germany’s 15-year-old Ida Wobker, ranked 24th in ITF juniors, was disqualified from Wimbledon’s junior singles after throwing her racket into the stands during a second-set rally; officials paused play and her opponent Maria Valentina Pop advanced automatically, then lost in the next round to Daniella Britton. Wobker apologized on social media and pledged to learn from the incident, which violated ITF rules prohibiting violent or anger-driven racket throwing.
