Player wanted father removed

Bernard Tomic was put in an unusual professional circumstance this past Saturday during the second-round of the the Sony Ericsson Open in Miami. Tomic?s father was in the stands watching his son play and was a little overbearing, to say the least. He continually tried to get Bernard?s attention and was clearly an annoyance, so much so that Bernard went to the line judge to have him removed from the match:
Sports Illustrated explains in detail:
?He?s annoying me,? Tomic is heard telling Mourier. ?I know he?s my father, but he?s annoying me. I want him to leave, but how is that possible??
?And if you tell him to leave, what?s going to happen?? Mourier responded.
?It?s not going to happen,? Tomic said. ?If you see him [coaching], tell him to be quiet.?
?He knows already,? Mourier said. ?I caught him [coaching] already.?
Mourier then issued a warning to Bernard about illegal coaching and the player thanked him.
