Drama on the court!

Novak Djokovic, the second best tennis player IN THE WORLD, is in distress after being told he cannot bring his pet poodle Pierre with him to Wimbledon.

It is understood that Djokovic is making representations "at the highest level" to try to ensure Pierre arrives at Wimbledon in time for the tournament's second week.

The dog, to whom he is devoted, has been an ever present during the European clay court season, which Djokovic dominated until losing for the only time this year in the French Open semi-finals.

Pierre was even spotted in Paris, sat on a cushion at a table cafe next to the tennis player who fed him noodles.

All Lindsanity jokes aside, this is really awful.

In the UK, Racing Greyhound Droopys Arshavin tested positive for cocaine following a Wimbledon match on August 3.

Droopys' trainer, Stuart Mason, is being charged by the Greyhound Board of Great Britain for giving him cocaine, presumably to enhance his performance.

Terrible! We hope Droopys' trainer gets punished properly for abusing his poor animal!
