Henri Leconte hit the courts with partner Patrick McEnroe on Tuesday at Wimbledon for senior invitation doubles. These exhibition matches are never as serious as the WTA and ATP contests, but things got a little crazy  when Leconte traded places with the umpire.

Leconte and McEnroe would lose to Jacco Eltingh and Paul Haarhuis 6-3, 7-5, but Leconte provided lots of laughs and won the hearts of the No. 3 court crowd.
