he was capitalizing on a weak return with a full on backhand hammer. He would have stopped and asked for a let if Crouin had been closer. cut the guy some slack. a warning would have sufficed. He doesnt seem like one to ignore safety warnings.

"3point stroke"

Superclear STROKE

Crouin 👏🏽👏🏽 ,

think the first one is a let, if not a stroke . watching the psa guys, the opponent hit a bad ball and it came back. she doesn't have to hit half volley

Provoking and whinning... That was not very classy.

Mo must've been playing some pretty dirty shit for crouin to do that.... even nick matthew was urging him to get the heck off the court.

Poleshchuk is a disgrace to the game! Poor form referee!

Pretty sure he wouldn't be getting free rackets anymore from his sponsor after that.

Terrible call!

Given the shocking shot by the red shorts guy whilst his opponent was on the floor, he probably deserved to lose this point...

awesome

I’d like a different angle to see how tight the first is but I think that is a let and the 2nd is a stroke

It is always dangerous to run from behind closely to the front and to the right of the opponent when the opponent needs to swing and follow through. The returning player takes this risk - no let. It's not a stroke as it was a good return and he was stepping away.

Taxi!!

Whaaaatttt the fuuuuuuckkk ???

Over zealous ref, it's too close to call and not worth stopping play, and 3 was not a foot fault, her foot was clearly in the box on contact with the ball.

touching the wall is fault?? what's that all about? Never heard that before.

I can understand why the ref called no let, it did seem that player 2 made no real effort to run around player 1 AND instead chose to push player 1 to make it seem he was obstructed. Player 1 did a good return down the wall and was stepping away as he should, definitely not a stroke.

years ago we used to call that 'turning on the ball' and it was considered unsportsmanlike, and arguably dangerous.

That's a dirty player, can't believe this is professional level squash.

I've seen worse.

Go lobbo!

Boys at play !!

Love Lobban

bad return, stroke

Last one wasn't, other two were ffs

Yep, stroke.

Awarded the match, good one, very dangerous play.

Firstly, an opponent should not expect a direct route to the ball. Secondly, the opponent must be in a position to not only play the ball, but arguably be able to play a winner had he not been hindered, to be awarded a stroke. The opponent was lucky to be awarded a let, as the ref may have taken the view that he didn't make sufficient effort to get to the ball.

2 brats at a playground

_Bad umpire._

Couple of other clips shows similar bad movement from striker after playing the ball. Effectively moving straight back into the players line, creating a blocking situation. The palms up and look of either bewilderment or innocence gets me everytime, too funny.

Please be careful. I have no idea why he is saying it 🤩

The rot started in the first 3 points. Daniel clearly was making little attempt to play the ball from the outset (appealing for minimal swing interference that in my grade would be a no let) and he was consistently rewarded with cheap strokes. Nasser wanted to play and have an actual match and the ref didn’t want to make Daniel do the same. Adding insult to injury was the ridiculous claim of blocking and conduct warning when Daniel took a stupid line from the back right to a ball in the back left of the court via the T. Nasser tried to clear based on the line that Daniel should have taken and was told off for his opponents poor choices.

this is what you get when a incompetent person is the referee.

Ref is a dickhead.. excuse my French! 😊

Great

He was waiting for the shuttlecock to bounce 😂😂

If the ball was always going to the side wall (right where the non-striker was standing), could be argued that the striker was aiming for the non-striker, in which case this would be dangerous and reckless play and CS could be awarded. Alternatively, it could be argued the non-striker moved before striker had finished playing his shot, effectively creating the situation where he would get hit and therefore contributing to dangerous play situation, - in which case YL (because tracectory of the ball was to the side wall), - and a caution to both players regarding player safety.

I look at it as, if Dussourd were not there, then Mueller would've made the shot. Dussourd needs to clear the line to the ball. He actually moved back into Mueller's path. Should have been a stroke.

Id say let even if the ball seemed kind of low cause even if he went around id imagine hed still ask for a let

I say no let cause the ball already went past and he shouldve gone round the back to have a chance to get to it

The Ukrainian/Jewish guy is flopping terribly and the ref takes his side. It reminds me of something :)

That guys nickname is the dentist I bet

Vamos!

For id say let cause to me id feel like he couldve swung and maybe accidently hit him. Yes i get that these guys are pretty good but even then i feel like he couldve hit him oj the follow throu

5 minutes in and not a single legal serve yet. Is the ref blind?

Honeslty it's only a let for me cause if he just stayed against the wall then the ball wouldnt have hit him and he could just hit straight

Like come in the first he could've easily gone round the back of him instead of running into cause the ball was pretty much going to the back of the court anyways so just go round the back and call a let the there.
