NOT AGAIN!!!
The good news ... unlike the incident at the U.S. Open, the line judge was uninjured this time!

Novak smacked a ball out of the court out of pure frustration -- it was NOT in the capacity of trying to play a live ball. The line judge at the U.S. Open was hit in the neck and fell to her knees -- though, ultimately she was okay.
