The worst overrules were Serena vs Capriati on 3 different occasions in the final set of their ‘04 US Open quarterfinal, which introduced Hawkeye shortly following that match.
Nowhere near the worst call of all time. Gosh, there's been calls far worse. It was probably out but the umpire should not have called it. Too close. At love-15 with his serve, Roddick should have won that game. Still, he wouldn't have beaten Pete. Roddick would have won four or more majors in most eras. Hewitt, three or four too.
Both of them really - Roddick and Hewitt both had really promising results in the early 2000's and everyone thought that was going to be the big rivalry of the decade with them sweeping up most slams between them.............then some guy from Switzerland turned up!
@@HULKHOGAN1 A digital camera replay can also be manipulated in the same way. It's all pixels now. Regardless, human umpires make mistakes all the time.

i've seen a shit load of tennis matches in my days, and I gotta say, thats the worst over rule of all time. Roddick's "anger" was I think under the top, I would done a lot more than that with as stupid a call as that one, it creamed the line and some of the inside court. LOL
Completely agree. I've been following the sport closely since '03, watched hundreds of matches, and given the stage of the match and the tournament, this is the single worst call I've ever seen. Even though I've watched this clip several times before, it still shocks me to see him overrule a far sideline ball at 4-5 in the 5th. It is almost a criminal interference in the outcome of this match.
The overrule in Serena's QF against Capriati was way worse. The ball was an inch and a half INSIDE the line and on the far sideline from the umpire. It was unreal how bad of a call that was. And then she got two more bad overrules after that. This was indeed a bad overrule but it may have actually been out, you'd need Hawkeye to know for sure, but Serena's ball was like a clean winner inside the line and the umpire overruled it. Bonkers!
Yeah. Hey what would be the worst reaction? Maybe call the umpire a liar and a racist. And if the lines person made a seemingly bad call, threaten to kill them.
@@ErikCB912 it was out. Roddick's behavior was embarrassing, typical American that thinks the world revolves around him. What did Serena say? I have a child, or I have a daughter. Fuck that puts her in a special, unique category. Lleyton's reaction, focused, water off a duck's back, typical Aussie. Per capita, we're the best tennis players in history, especially in the old days.
This is definitely the worst out call I have ever seen..if Hawkeye were in place back then I doubt that umpire would have the nerve to make that call and if he did, he would probably suffer humiliation..
Both of these are considered by many to be the ultimate underachievers in Tennis, a term thats not very nice and very unfair, But yes you have Hewitt with 2 and Roddick with 1, its just that their timing was lousy
I remember having watched this game on live in 2001 and all i can deduce is that Lleyton won this match with his Mind and personality,on the other hand, Andy lost it because of his Mind.
I know we all get bad calls but to act so cocky. I think it's unacceptable. I think Roddick could have won more if he changed his ways in handling pressure. I think he lacked patience. I find him cocky.
He was definitely cocky throughout his career, but the call was much more unacceptable than his reaction. I always find it funny when people expect athletes to just accept insanely horrific officiating decisions as if it's no big deal. He got jobbed, pure and simple, and to expect him to just be a great guy about it is not fair. If that had been Roger Federer, the chair umpire would have also gotten an earful, I promise you. Deservedly so, also.
Not that Andy Roddick is anywhere near the best player in history, but in history, American's have got screwed in tennis, it shows fore sure. There's obviously reasons for every American players tirades, overall though hawk eye has done a lot to settle it.
My question is where did you get psycho and racist from this comment? Are you completely stuffed in the head? My point was that his reaction was way over the top, and that he sounded and behaved like a cliche American jock. This is hard to deny. Serena, yes, she is a racist... and I do not like her. She also overreacted to a line call and threatened to kill the lines person. She is also a piece of crap who happens to be American. I'm so happy that she is retiring, because it was clear she was obsessed with beating Margaret Court's record. An Australian of course. We're the best at everything.
@@shafqatishan437 Margaret Court holding the Grand Slam record, Rod Laver regarded as the best ever. Then you have a bunch of other highly successful players to pile on top of that. Australia had and has a fraction of the population of America, and America pours billions of dollars into sport scholarship etc. and we're still better.
Worst overrule of ALL TIME
It actually might be. I can't think of a worse one?
The worst was that overrule against Pliskova last year, as she hit a smash that was clearly in and her opponent cheated pretending she didn't see it.

God bless Hawk-Eye.
Hawk-Eye could be a scam for all we know. I’d rather real camera be used, not some fake computer generated bullshit which can easily be altered.
It's been pretty accurate most of the time since it was introduced. And it also prevents these tantrums on court.
@@HULKHOGAN1 It's not fake computer bullshit and similar technology is now being used in other sports, such a cricket.
@@GonzoTehGreat a computer generated image can easily be manipulated. Just show the ball a few cm to the side and a game can be fixed.

@@asantesamuel13 very true. Line umpires during that match were all legally blind..
I find it hard to believe that you watched a lot of tennis and that's the worst call overturn you ever saw.
@@MissLippy-fy6bj the far side of the court at such a crucial moment in the match? I can't think of worse personally.
3:05 John McEnroe says, "you're talking to the wrong person". Lol XD It's funny because back when he was playing, he reacted terribly to bad calls.
Bryan Dyer haha right.
no shit sherlock
That's the joke 5 year old comment
YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS!
Roddick showing true respect and discipline for shaking the ump's hand after the match
Yeah. Hey what would be the worst reaction? Maybe call the umpire a liar and a racist. And if the lines person made a seemingly bad call, threaten to kill them.
@@arconeagain
Girl go eat the turds from your MAGALord’s bootyhole. 😒
He already lost.
if hawkeye had existed back then, the chair umpire would've been much more hesitant to overrule the call
The umpire did his job because there was no hawkeye. The ball was out.
Jeremy Frances you’re joking. You must be
@@arconeagain if you think that ball was out then you need glasses. Even with this video quality Ray Charles could see that it was in

@@arconeagain lol what
I don’t like roddick but that was a ridiculous call by the umpire at a critical point in the match.
It was clearly OUT. Watch the REPLAY ❤
Looked in to me, a fellow non Roddick fan.
The way he acts though. Ridiculous.
This is definitely the worst out call I have ever seen..if Hawkeye were in place back then I doubt that umpire would have the nerve to make that call and if he did, he would probably suffer humiliation..
its that dummy diaz he did the same thing to pete later at the 02 Australian open. he hates americans.
If this had been on clay the umpire would've checked the mark and probably not correct himself.
Last set other side of court and he overrules the call. Wow.
"I'm getting prouder of him by the moment" hahahaha
Tennis’ gigachad era
he still shook the hand that was a good gesture by roddick!
haha you could tell roddick didnt wanna shake his hand
i agree with mary carillo...andy roddick did this all the time. and thank god they came up with hawk eye.
If Hewitt had a better serve, Roddick would never get near him and he would have challenged Federer for dominance 03-06.
Now, THIS was Next gen
4:29 Spot on
whats up with the commentary in this video?
Its not live, is it.. like a look back at this match or something.
That umpire is a joke....complete buffoonery.
Both of these are considered by many to be the ultimate underachievers in Tennis, a term thats not very nice and very unfair, But yes you have Hewitt with 2 and Roddick with 1, its just that their timing was lousy
thank god for hawk eye lol
Andy Roddick ❤
Duck yeah the ball was clearly in . I didn't really like any of these two players and I'm from Australia . Rios fan :)
i miss my rodDICK so much..
that umpire's probably gloating in his room for every championship match Roddick lost...
It's strange. you forget both of these players are only a year older than Roger Federer. they would have won so much more if he was not around
Roddick is one year younger than Federer
And Hewitt is the same age
Terrible overrule..the ball caught the line clearly on camera!
Easily out.
stifleeeer anger mod on
I remember having watched this game on live in 2001 and all i can deduce is that Lleyton won this match with his Mind and personality,on the other hand, Andy lost it because of his Mind.
where is he now? the umpire ?
olaraay studying the difference between green and white. COZ HES AN IDIOT@@@!!!!!!!!!!!!
Roddick was fun to watch before the game dominated by big 3. Wish he has more tennis IQ instead of just pure power
You didn’t watch post 2004 roddick if you think he was pure power.
I You 'r Best Stifler
He should've been defaulted
Ball was good
Andy Roddick had a pretty disappointing career.
Hewett stole the match. He knew Roddick's ball was in. He couldn't face Roddick at the net.
Blaming Hewitt for the over rule?
You spud .
Definitely 💯% OUT. Watch the Replay Again. 3 More times if you have to.
Legend says William Shatner lost his crown that day for "most hammy actor."

@@tonyhughes1033can I have example of him being cocky ?
The reaction was worse than the bad call. Ball was in by less than an 1/8th inch. What gets me is somebody excusing that behavior.
The ball was OUT!
the ball was clearly wide come on
No it definitely hit the line.... literally half of the ball was on the line. If ANY part of the ball hits the line.. it's in.

Roddick behaving like the cliche American jock. Australians are much better tennis players than Americans in every way... except for Kyrgios.
Right because Hewitt was such a classy guy. He played like a psycho and was racist. Nobody liked him.
@@jonmcclane7433 played like a psycho? You mean he was very determined and a scrambler. And a racist? How? When? Serena Williams is a racist.
