The situation occurred in the eleventh game of the second set of the match against Tomás Barrios.
This Tuesday, Tomás Barrios beat Christian Garin, in a Chilean duel valid for the first round of the Chile Open. The one from Chillán won in two sets, 7-6 and 7-5, and qualified for the next round where he will face another national: Alejandro Tabilo. For its part, Gago did not seem comfortable during the match and, in addition, at the end he made a controversial play in which he lost a point that could have changed his luck in the competition.
Firstly, the one who was born in Arica got angry with the pitch and the bouncing of the ball on clay. In the first set, he complained to his team about not being able to hit him with a forehand, which continued in the second set.
Of course, the worst came in the eleventh game of the second. When Barrios had breaking point In favor, Garin launched a right cross that the chillanejo stopped to call it bad. The chair umpire came down and also gave a bad shot, which disturbed Gago, who immediately crossed to the other side of the court.
When I saw the ball hit, I couldn’t believe it. In disbelief, he held his head, crouched and then stood up, hands on hips, while trying to overturn the judge’s decision.
After the match ended, the image of the ball hitting the ball went viral, which appeared to have hit the line, which would have given the Arieño the point. It should be noted that due to this action Tomás Barrios went bankrupt and subsequently served to close the duel. Decisive action.
Precisely Tomi was consulted at a press conference on this controversial decision but the tennis player did not want to raise this subject.
“This is by far the worst court I have played on in an ATP tournament”
For his part, after the defeat, Garin had words about the poor state of the field during the press conference: “I don’t like to say it, because I really enjoy this tournament, but I think this is by far the worst court I have played on, in an ATP tournament. “I don’t know what happened that made things so bad.”
Finally, he recently made a brutal self-criticism about his level: “I don’t know what to say, I don’t have a strategy. I try every day, I get up, I train, I play with the pain, it doesn’t go away. It’s difficult, it’s frustrating, I don’t know what’s happening, I can’t find myself. I play horribly. I ache all over. No matter how much I try, it doesn’t work. “That things aren’t working out, that I’m playing so poorly, it’s depressing.”
