I'm curious to know, has this kind of 'crowd trouble' ever been experienced at tournaments outside of Australia? I can't think of any.

To the best of my limited knowledge about tennis I believe its unique to Australia. Certainly amongst the major tournaments.

Ignoring all the self congratulatory back slapping, if your degree should have tought you anything at all, it is that man is tribal. Always has been, always will be.

This "why can't we all just get along" mantra is pure fantasy.
