The third racket of the world, Cori Gauff, did not agree with the judge’s decision and argued with him for a long time.
Cori Gauff reached the quarterfinals of the prestigious tennis tournament in Dubai. To do this, the third racket of the world has to beat the Czech Karolina Pliskova.
However, the match turned out to be very difficult for the American. Although he defeated his opponent with a score of 2:6, 6:4, 6:3, he had to spend almost two hours on the court and argue with the main arbiter.
In the seventh game of the second set, a controversial episode occurred. The 19-year-old tennis player appealed the service, then the ball hit the right spot, but the referee shouted “out” and Pliskova did not receive the ball. Chair umpire Pierre Bacchi did not give Cory a point, but awarded him another serve. Corey started a showdown on the court.
“You will shout immediately after he hits! Yes! When he hit, the ball was already in the net and you said.
Call the supervisor. I won’t play until you call the supervisor. I will ask him for the rule. You don’t know the answer. I have the right to ask. You can’t tell me the rule. If I question a rule, you should call a supervisor. It’s my right. Call him! Can you listen to me without being interrupted? Can you stop interrupting me for two seconds?” Gauff yelled.
The referee said he immediately called. Because of this, the American was forced to continue the fight, but angrily turned to the referee: “You will blame me. After the fight, when you watch the video, you will apologize.”
Coco Gauff was not happy with the umpire in her match against Pliskova.
“You called it after he got hit.”
“Can you not cut me off for two seconds?”
“Call the supervisor… you can’t deny me the supervisor. I’ll ask him what the policy is.”
