So he has a separate racquet to throw to the ground in a fit of rage? Let me get this straight, now: he loses a point or otherwise gets irritated; he carefully puts down his real racquet; he runs to the sideline to pick up his “throw down”; he throws that one to the ground; then he comes back to pick up his real one and resumes the game. Is that the procedure?

Still flogging McEnroe? Don’t you think it’s time to bury that?

Some other pro just went beserk with his throw down a couple weeks ago, it’s not just McEnroe.

Where I came from a “throw down” was an unregistered backup piece.
