I’m interested
An incredible scene took place in Flushing Meadows on Sunday, where world leader Novak Djokovics entered the field against Pablo Carreño Busta, as an absolute prospect, of course.
At the end of the first set, the Serbian lost a serve and with it a game, giving his opponent a 6-5 lead and being able to serve for the first set.
Djokovics was visibly disappointed with the substitution and hit the last service ball left in his pocket in anger towards the baseline, but he did not pay attention and the ball found one of the linesmen on his neck, who was drowning, he did not recover for a few minutes and needed care.
Djokovics barely released the punch, he immediately felt that he had made a mistake, he was scared, he apologized and he regretted it, but that did not change the referee’s judgment either: he was relegated from the game and therefore from the competition as well.
The Grand Slams rules make it clear that players must not abuse the opponent, the referee, or the spectators under any circumstances, and while it is clear that Djokovics did not intentionally target the ball boy with the ball, a series of angry movements put their physical integrity is in danger. , so the judge finally decided to resign.
After the incident, a long dispute ensued between the referee and the Serbian, but the judge, along with the supervisor, were adamant.
With Djokovics eliminated, he decided he would be the new winner of the US Open after Nadal and Wawrinka, among the active winners of the US Open, did not even start in the race, Chilich and Murray were eliminated and Del Potro and Federer were injured for a long time. . (Eurosport)
