Epic Meltdown at Aussie Open

Found January 19, 2012 on The Victory Formation: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Marcos Baghdatis,  Stanislas Wawrinka
2010_australian_open_06a7
Just in case you missed it, and by the lack of ratings for the Australian Open, you probably did, here is one of the best temper tantrums you will ever see.  Marcos Baghdatis was just broken in the third set of his match against Stanislas Wawrinka, after dropping the first 2 sets. The 2008 finalist proceeded to smash 4 racquets, the last one still wrapped in plastic. The pity party for himself worked temporarily, as he rebounded to get the break back, and win the third set. Ultimately, it wasn’t enough, as Baghdatis would lose the 4th set.
