In other offbeat news from the Open, the match between Belgian Christophe Rochus and American Donald Young was stopped for 40 minutes after a ball boy wet his pants on court 10.
"The ball kid peed on himself. It was unfortunate," Young said.

This is definitely a more elevated infraction than a foot fault. Feel sorry for the poor kid though. How do you live that one down?

John McEnroe would have wiped the court with him.

If the ball boy peed himself, who peed on the woman?
Or did I miss something?

So would that spot on the court be the ball boy's peed-a-terre?
