LOL!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

This dialogue will live on in tennis meltdown moments

Every time she said “Carolyn” cracked me up 😂😂😂

@@falks941 .... agreed. I don't what it was about saying "Carolyn" that had me in tears.

You forgot "That makes NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sense"

Overrule his first call based on what? Because one of the players complains? We are watching the replays of the ball hitting her body but he thought it hit her racquet, there’s no VAR or hawkeye he or the players can request for this type of situation.

Says the guy who had the luxury of seeing a slow motion replay. And no, Amritaj is not young, and she was not arguing correctly.

@@VeganBeerMonster she was arguing correctly. The chair just didn’t see it. In her mind the point ended when she hit the opponent. Even the apology was made while she was hitting the ball not her opponent. I don’t think that’s a hinderance any more than communicating verbally with your partner when the ball is on your side of the court.

umpire thought the girl hit the ball with her racquet, not her leg, thus he thought it was opponents point cuz riske talked "during" the point

@@danielyang3140 Yes but you wouldn’t say sorry for no reason, which was the point Riske tried to make. You’d only say sorry AFTER doing something wrong, why Riske was so annoyed at and understandably so. And the fact he was so close, literally right above the lady that got hit you’d think he’d see it very clearly.

@@Lishmaa maybe he thought she said sorry cuz she hit it right at her and was being nice. from first glance, at the first angle it looks like the player hit the ball with her racquet. obviously with replay she didn't but he didn't see it. from his POV she hit it with her racquet and riske interrupted the point. obviously he's wrong but mistakes happen

@@Lishmaa That doesn't matter. You can not talk during the point. Only on a slow motion replay can you tell she didn't hit the ball. At first it looks like the ball was actually struck and in play, which is likely what the umpire saw. So the umpire made the call thinking the ball was in play. He's human and made a mistake. But from his viewpoint, he made the right call. You'll also notice that after saying sorry, she continued to play. So she also thought the ball may be in play.

Well the idiot umpire at the least could have asked the player if the ball hit her. Most players aren’t going to lie if asked. He was being an ass and the director that was called out didn’t ask either. 2 completely incompetent asswipes. They don’t have those jobs though because they’re rocket scientists.

I was thinking the same thing!

Peknej nickname 😂

She is a russian tennis player. Russian people are accustomed to lie. Its their national treasure.

@@Izmael1310 How is THIS not hate speech?

If you look closely, right after the replay after getting hit, you can see when she turns and walks to her partner, she points down at her leg.

Why did the umpire call "let" before Riske hit her shot?

No one should ever be abused. Even if he made a mistake

@@stefanmeidlinger2311 No one should be incompetent. Even if she mocked him.

umpire thought the girl hit the ball with her racquet, not her leg, thus he thought it was opponents point cuz riske talked "during" the point

@@danielyang3140 it shouldn’t matter what the umpire thought, it should only matter what actually happened. When the umpire knew that he was clearly wrong he should have corrected his bad call. If the opponent was not forthcoming about being hit which apparently she wasn’t, he should have asked her if she was hit by the ball. If she answered yes, then she loses the point, and if she answers “no, it hit my racquet” then maybe she wins the point. But if it is determined after the match is over that she lied, I would think she should be punished somehow for lying. Umpire handled the whole situation very poorly, especially on an ad point. Brutal.

Well the problem is that the umpire can't really take a player's opinion on what happened ahead of what he thought happened unless it's a player conceding a point the umpire awarded to them incorrectly. And as things stand, there are no rules in tennis (or any other sport as far as I'm aware) to punish players after matches for lying during them. Now, of course there are things that could be done in the big tournaments to avoid situations like this, such as giving the umpire the ability to see replays for contentious calls, but that's not in the rules of tennis now. So as stupid as it may sound, after he made the initial wrong call, he couldn't really change it since he can't decide ad-hoc that he saw the event differently from what he thought he saw in the moment. The only exception to this that we have in tennis is when umpires check ball marks on clay courts on close calls.

@@HawkOfGP he could have asked the opponent if the ball hit her. I’ll bet she would not have lied.

@@damiankarras Maybe, but I wouldn't make that bet.

Nah, just wait until you're sure the point is over

But they didn't win a point so...

Oh, that's awesome. Justice prevails

umpire thought the girl hit the ball with her racquet, not her leg, thus he thought it was opponents point cuz riske talked "during" the point

Yes the supervisor was useless! They need video replay or something, because these sorts of thing always happen. And it was very clear on the replay what happened.

@@danielyang3140 the point was over ANYWAY, cuz the sorry came AFTER, so it can't EVEN be considered an hindrance. Furthermore, the girl herself showed her partner the ball touched her leg. This is a total disaster from the umpire lol.

Referees in all sports are like that, they have massive egos and don’t like being told they’re wrong

I like that idea!

Worst of all, not even the supervisor fixed anything, I was waiting for things even more. I think there are people in the wrong place, today anyone can be employed without being competent and qualified for that position and that is what is happening with umpires and supervisors in tennis. There is mediocrity on the surface!

Unfortunately it matters what umpire thought...

Totally!

Have you ever seen this in real life? Remember Maradona?

@@johanneskreisler7647 maradona? Who or what is that?

No but you can speak in doubles if it's your ball to hit. Suppose the ball hit the racquet and not the leg, it would've been their ball to hit, so they're allowed to speak and say sorry.

Honest mistake by the ref. They should have asked the opponent if it hit her. There is a code of tennis to follow. If she lied she should be fined.

I know right... Seems like respect and good manners are not part of American culture.😑😒

Who ?. Do you even know tennis rules . She is totally in the right there

@@VARMOT123 Being in the right- yes. Behaviing like a fourth grader about it - yes.

Not as easy as you may think. You play a 15 year career and you get burned by stupid "wrong" calls by umpires that go against you and yet every time that happens to your opponent to even that out, you are saying that the player shouldn't even that out but instead give in to every bad call that goes against her opponents even though her opponents don't do the same for her????
