Bomb scare at Queen’s ATP event

A bomb scare interrupted the proceedings at a Wimbledon warm-up event in London delaying a third-round match between Andy Roddick and Lleyton Hewitt by 15 minutes.

“A member of the public reported a bomb threat message found pinned to a wall just before the third match on Centre Court began,” Queen’s Club chief executive Andrew Stewart said in a statement.

The threat turned out to be a hoax and Hewitt,who lost 6-7 (2) 6-7 (4) to the big-serving American,described the entire situation as weird.
