Up 9-8 in an incredibly intense first-set tiebreaker on Day 3 of the Australian Open, No. 24 seed Jerzy Janowicz came unglued against Somdev Devvarman. In fairness, Devvarman (injured in 2012 and playing courtesy of a protected ranking in this major event) had an earlier dispute with the chair umpire. Janowicz, though, lost his composure entirely, kneeling down and touching the line that the ball did or did not graze, barking at the official and generally embarrassing himself. The outer court did not have Hawk-Eye technology available, but you can relive the incident here:
