Australian Marc Polmans said he had apologised to the chair umpire after accidentally hitting him in the face with a ball in a Shanghai Masters qualifying match on Tuesday.
The world number 140 was leading Italian Stefano Napolitano 7-6 6-6 when he hit a volley into the net on his second match point before launching the ball in frustration, catching chair umpire Ben Anderson in the face.
Polmans was immediately disqualified after the incident, which brought back memories of a similar one in 2017 when Denis Shapovalov inadvertently smashed a ball into the face of umpire Arnaud Gabas, leaving him with a fractured eye socket.
The ATP has not said if he will face additional punishment.Zack Wheeler tossed 6 2/3 strong innings, Alec Bohm hit an RBI double and the host Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Miami Marlins 4-1 in Game 1 of a best-of-three National League wild-card series on Tuesday night.

Johnston calls for clear pathway for critical mineralsWestern Australian Mines and Petroleum, Energy, Hydrogen Industry and Industrial Relations Minister Bill Johnston has called on the federal government to develop a clear pathway to support the development of downstream processing in critical minerals, without forgetting the importance of mining. “I think it's good that the Commonwealth government is systematically addressing the critical minerals space, and I don't want to be seen to be unnecessarily critical.
