Clijsters had asked teammate Stubbs about where she should aim her next serve when the fan chipped in with his opinion.

Jeff Tarango had one of the biggest meltdowns Wimbledon has ever seen - he even quit the match on the spot. The eyes of the world are on SW19 for two weeks of the year when the best tennis players in the world compete at the only grass court Grand Slam. Many would argue Wimbledon is the most prestigious of all four major titles and that brings with it plenty of pressure. Now we’ve all lost our rag on the tennis court, but perhaps not as badly as Tarango did back in 1995.
