Suspension. This is slowly crawling into a dangerous place. If the players get away with talking this way to the umps, it will not end well.

It looks like the umpire may have misunderstood, as, after he climbed down from the chair, it seems that he reached up from the back of the chair to get the balls that Zeppieri asked him if he had... :)

But seriously... in a 6-0, 6-3 match, I think it's safe to say that the umpire did not make a significant difference in the outcome.

Indeed.
This could tie to the weekend boycott of social media, which is being done because people online are being extremely aggressive to players. This is an in-person argument and therefore the verbal threat is more direct.

It takes you several looks to understand with which face he hit it. Incredible.

He hit it with the forehand face, using an eastern backhand grip.

That's a much, much more difficult shot than the between the legs shot when chasing down a lob. The between the legs shot is actually not as difficult as it looks. But this one is extremely difficult to hit.
It's a Pablo Cuevas Special.

Dating back to August, I’ve repeatedly stated my belief that the Sakkari/Kontaveit/Mertens generation continues to be overlooked

Can essentially pen one of them into any tournaments SF spot. If recent results are any indication, they’re all clearly entering their primes





What do we think about this theory?

I... am at a loss. There are too many languages in the tour. The umps need some help if this rule is to be consistently enforced.
