Davis Cup crowd control needed Crowd control has become a big issue in the Davis Cup competition, particularly recently in some South American countries. In one of the worst issues of unruly crowd behaviour in the Cup, unruly Chilian spectators forced the Argentine team to withdraw from their Davis Cup qualifying match. The crowd, angered by line calls against their player threw fruit, coins, bottles and plastic chairs onto the court. Argentine player Mariano Zabeleta's father suffered a head injury which required 10 stitches. In response the International Tennis Federation has kicked both Argentina and Chile out of this year's Davis Cup competition. Tennis authorities need to take stronger measures to enforce crowd control in heated situations. This kind of outcome is unacceptable in our gentlemanly sport of tennis. davis cup • crowd control • mariano zabeleta • chile • argentina.
