Great athlete doesn’t necessarily mean they’re grown ups.

What a d-bag

Protection needed for Umpires

...And that was how Shapovalov began his unfortunate career in tennis.

LMFAO! What a sight! 🤣

lol

Nice decision he got desqualified 👏🏻

Hit anyone else in the face: "Sorry. You good? Alright lol" Hit the umpire in the face: "I'm sorry. So sorry. Sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry"

I thought he did it on purpose. Disappointed 🙃

The ref is a P***y lol. It's just a tennis ball. Acting like he punched or something. Beta male right there

that's why they say.....'hey man nice shot"......nice shot man.......

I supposse he was suspended for a time, dont?

Never make stupid things!

Could've lost his eye. I wouldn't have shaken that child's hand.

Luego le pasó a Djokovic en Us Open, amerita expulsión del torneo así sea sin intención.

Shapovalov is an idiot. He could have hit anyone , a kid in the crowd. And i am Canadian!

Huh what??? Surely that wasnt the winning descision? Did I miss something?

Haha

Well these so called pros will act like twats act your age not your shoe size maybe 🤔

Taking responsibility for your actions. Default. Goodbye.

It was stupid, but he clearly didn't do it deliberately. Consider the number of games this guy has played...most likely countless. I highly doubt this happened to him before. If I'm wrong with this assumption, it would be a different thing. Changing the outcome of a game based on something like that is unreasonable and clearly wrong. However, always the same thing, where there's power it's being used. There are worse examples in society though...sadly enough...but that's how the world is functioning.

Lesson learned

That looked nasty😬

Those russians (I know he is Canadian citizen) never had much culture

It was dumb but he didn't do it on purpose.

Now this game is fake and collecting all day and highest bonus is 200x not more than that it was a new thats why they guve huge big win and was a trap for new players

The ball probably travelled 150kmph while hitting his face. Very immature to hit a ball when there are spectators sitting around

Flagrant and deliberate. It's not enough to disqualify him. He should be permanently banned , arrested and charged with assault. It should be a police matter now.

Was für ein Depp! Total unreif. Wie ein kleines Kind. Nimm diesem Typen den Schläger weg und dazu noch das Auto. Völlig verantwortungslos, so ein Idiot.

It's a bloody tennis ball not cricket ball wow

Sucks for the viewers that pay money for it.

That judge has no sense of humor... :-)

Disqualification was the only outcome for the player’s disgraceful temper tantrum.

" game...."

The consequences of being an idiot.

Idiot!

I am Canadian and I am very disappointed in Denis Shapovalov. He and other players (male and female) need to learn to control their emotions. They are not just professional, but grownass adults. His stupid behaviour could have blinded the chair umpire or even caused a concussion. Getting disqualified is a small price to pay. He could have faced liabilities. There are many sports where the consequences could have been far worse. I hope he learned from this mistake.

If you’ve never been hit in the eye with a tennis ball…. It’s terrible

If I remember, the Umpire's eye socket was actually fractured. It was a hell of a shot by Shapo!

The only thing Shapovalov is remembered for in 7 years career

This kid is a good human being. It was just another day at the office for this kid. Good parents.

I'm not crying. I'm fuckin' sobbing...

Shapovalov took responsibility. Knew he'd effd up.

Ref is actually lucky in that unfortune that it went to his eye instead of the nose, teeth or neck. That ball was going 120mph easily

I was this game with my Dad 🙂

It wasn't intentional, just unfortunate. Good on the umpire for not making a big deal about it. Just an unfortunate moment but was handled professionally which is rare in sport these days. Look at football, sneeze beside one of the worlds best and they will roll over in agony about 4 times

He's almost certain to hit someone. My little brother used to this every time he lost to me. But there was no crowd :D

Incredibly stupid action but it obviously wasn’t intentional and he seemed genuinely concerned about the umpire. Maybe it will be a lesson for later in life. The umpire also handled it very well and didn’t seem to mad at the player.

😢❤❤❤❤

Ya get that
