There are two sides to every story and Beechy has a track record of bringing highly motivated juniors through and into adult professional tennis, most notably Kyle.

Whilst the details of the exchange on are very limited and our knowledge around Joel's development is limited, ie we cannot contextualise it, I think it would be difficult to draw a fair conclusion. But it will be interesting to see how things move forward from here.

During Wimbledon qualifying Josh Middleton was loudly contesting some line calls with the umpire, didn't look great. Most of the crowd all desperate for him to win sat quietly and watched. A bloke just in front of me lost his patience and bawled from the crowd " just bloody get on with it" . Josh continued eventually calmed down played on and got knocked out. Taken in isolation didn't look good.

However, in context. Said barracker from the crowd, waited until Josh emerged between the courts intercepted him descending on him "go and apologise to the umpire now!!!" Josh " but did you see the calls..... er ... ok" and almost straight away despite having just lost a tight match probably the most important of his career dives back between the court to apologise.... In context .. Looks much better.

Having been around for most of the week seeing Josh supporting other players, playing some great tennis, knowing he'd come of the back of a very good early grass court season, earning a wildcard, one can understand his frustration. Seeing him probably being bollocked by his dad from the crowd and then cornered by him and sent back to apologise which he did with very little hesitation frames his altercation in away that makes you think, despite it being a high risk cut throat business just below the main tour there are people within it, players and families who still have their heads screwed on when everything is seen in context.

I may be wrong but I feel Colin Beecher probably falls into that category.
