    Opelka is technically correct that the linesman and ball kids are a little too close. He’s also a giant ass for behaving that way and blaming his poor play on them. Just next level juvenile. Would love to see he and Kyrgios play though.

    • @jdmrchem5
      @jdmrchem5 Před rokem +1

      The Wimbledon court that Opelka played is kinda too small for his size. I wouldn't want to play in the court that does not enough space and people being too near even it's 2 ft.. I wonder if he will complain if he plays in Centre Court. That's the best place to play tennis in Wimbledon and it has a lot of space for him to hit and reach for any balls within his range. Opelka did not have a good day, so he ended up blaming on the ball kids for his poor play. IMHO, the court is the problem, not the ball kids. At least, I want to see him and Kyrgios play since he respects Kyrgios and he does not call him a serve bot. Geez, what happened to him? He is supposed to be on par with the other ranked American players on the tour, but he fell off.

      @@Dom-yv4nq The problem is that Opelka is not as popular as the other marquee superstars. Maybe if he ever matches against Djokovic or any top player in the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th rounds, then he may see his time in Centre Court. It has so much room that he can use its size for his advantage. Opelka doesn't bring up enough money, plus people tend to not like the serve bot style of playing tennis. So, he's stuck with the smaller courts for a while. Even the US Open have smaller courts too.

    6. Mannarino's match is confusing cause it looks like he dropped the racket. But yeah, he smashed it. Again.
    7. Evans again complaining about embarrasments. Just watch the Karatsev match.

    9. Sonego was so pathetic. He just made grunting noises that distracted Nadal during their match. Terrible sport.
    10. Medvedev clearly didn't show effort AT ALL. The highlight of the match was when the protestor was running around the court. Even Medvedev's wife was disappointed in his lack of effort. 13:05
    11. Fergus Murphy and the line judges missing easy calls proves they have to go. Maybe to the Challenger Tour.
    12. Nick after phone rings: Now? Really? Also Nick in Indian Wells: TURN YOUR PHONE OFF!
    13. Go to point #3 to see how Nick felt.
    14. Hypocrisy: Nick states the umpire didn't see it. Yeah, and Nick didn't see it either.

    On some level, I sympathize with Nishioka. There’s a pretty giant difference between gently throwing your racquet on the ground in frustration and smashing it to bits. I mean, was that really necessary for the umpire to add gasoline to the quite tiny fire?

      @@Shabbydodo Well thanks for telling me about skills, certainly I wouldn’t know anything about tennis skills even though I’ve been playing all my life and actually just finished up my club’s annual doubles tournament yesterday (my team finished third overall in case you were wondering). Sorry, but this isn’t skill. This is emotion, and emotions are a big part of tennis, and this was not some court damaging banger, this was just a light little toss. Say what you will, but this is an umpire with a stick up his ass, no different than a traffic cop with a grudge against those with better educations who can afford nicer cars. Rules are rules, and they’re there for a reason, but as is usually the case with anything absolute, grey areas are not accounted for, and unfairness often has a healthy place in the game as a result.

      @@Tennisisreallyfun I don't think it would be easier or fairer to leave the question of what degree of force constitutes a punishable offence to the umpire's discretion. I could understand your objection had Nishioka TOSSED the racquet, but he THREW it to the ground, lightly or not. To me, that motion in itself is clear enough to deserve the warning, regardless of the amount of force used. Which, again, cannot be easily determined by the umpire and would surely raise frequent questions regarding consistency.

    I think Nadal this time was wrong and he knows that.
    Sonego’s grunt is fastidious (I’m Italian and I hate him doing that) but you can’t go to the net to tell your opponent to stop his grunt. Specially when he breaks you.
    He had two hours to tell Sonego to stop but he choose the break moment when he was in difficulty.
    Sonego is a nice guy, you can like him or not, but he’s very professional and after the match he wished Rafa good luck on Instagram.
    So, Nadal was wrong for me but I really appreciate him to say that he what he did wasn’t correct

    • @theaviator1152
      @theaviator1152 Před rokem +13

      The thing is, Sonego often grunts more egregiously towards the end of sets. And nobody else was saying anything for that long, I assume Nadal was probably thinking that he has to be the person to do it.
      It’s still better to speak up late than it is to just be silent the whole time in most cases. Even if it isn’t really in Nadal’s place to do it, blatantly outrageous grunting shouldn’t just be left alone to spread itself through the game.
      In my opinion, a player’s duty is to beat their opponent with their tennis and their shots, *not* with the noise that comes out of their mouth.

      @@lm10goat I want to give Sonego the benefit of the doubt, and yes I myself have sometimes felt the need to grunt half a second after hitting the ball, but he almost seems to do it for a drama/entertainment factor on bigger points, as if to say “look how hard I’m trying,” (Serena did this very frequently). When I think of Sonego I don’t really remember him for his tennis, I just think of him as the Italian player with the borderline-hindrance grunt.
      However I do know that Rafa is in the wrong-interacting directly with the opponent to voice a complaint is something you only should do in an amateur match with no officials-but at least he realizes it was wrong in that it may have hurt or distracted Sonego. Nadal also should probably be expected to mentally tough enough to just ignore the grunting and not cause any interruption to the game, but on the other hand when Nadal himself says your grunting is too much or too long, that does suggest something. I do think Sonego’s grunting is unnecessary, but I will definitely acknowledge that Nadal pointed that out in the wrong way-as he says, though, he did it in the nicest way possible that he could think of-Sonego is right too though that it was “not normal,” but there does seem to be a pattern for when in the match he chooses to grunt that way. So I do think how he defends it may be slightly disingenuous, as he acts like “oh, but I just have to do that.” I’m sure he realizes to some degree that he is kind of pushing the limit.
      I mean, again, some of his grunting at Wimbledon reminds me of the noises Federer and Nadal made at exhibitions 10 years ago as a *parody* of grunting.
      I also agree, Rafa could have waited until being in the locker room but that also probably would have been something that Sonego would mention in his press conferences and possibly start beef. Rafa likely wasn’t thinking that far ahead and just thought “I’ll talk to him briefly right now since I’m a bit bothered.”

    The vast majority of issues comes down to officials and their calls. Electronic line calling would eliminate so much of this. They could also use technology to determine IF a call interfered with a players shot, for example, if the call was made within (insert agreed interval from discussions with the players council). 0.1 seconds? 0.2 seconds? Etc.
    I just find it incredible that some of the calls at a place like Wimbledon can be so wrong, at crucial times. The tournament generates something like £160m and provides about £35m to the players, so surely they can afford an electronic line calling system. They dont even need to buy the system, as it could be leased by every tournaments, and only have to pay for set up costs as it moves from one tournament to another around the circuit.
    There are also Playsight courts permanently setup, in suburban courts, so it cant be THAT expensive if it came down to it.
