He apparently purposely flicked the ball at a lineswoman who got hit in the throat and was disqualified.

People on Twitter are saying it was an accident. The footage isn't very clear but considering he's a top tennis player (Ie excellent control over the ball) and known misogynist it doesn't seem surprising he was angry and decided to take it out on a woman.

Particularly unimpressed by this BBC Sport tweet. How the fuck do they know it was "accidentally"? Aren't they meant to be unbiased?

He may not have intended to hit her in the throat, but a temper tantrum is not a fucking accident.

They did the correct thing by sending him off. It won’t help his rage towards women though. Or other people’s.....

Apparently he argued that “it’s not like she needs to go to the hospital”? That seems to be his line of acceptability...

Lots of talk online about the female dramatizing for attention.
