[@lukenelson1931]

Outrageous. It was obvious that the Umpire didn't realize that Garin missed the follow up shot, and had given him the point based on the fact that he thought he had hit it in. At that point, the supervisor needs to go to the lines person and ask what the result of Garin's final shot in the rally had been. Upon being informed that it was out, the point should then have been awarded to Borges. Borges was on it for a second, but then he started talking with the Ump about the crowd noise, which was a red herring to the crucial issue! Disappointing stuff to be sure. What is crazy is that the Supervisor has to be informed of what has happened when he arrives in the first place! They should be sitting in a room with video footage of all the matches going on, and when a Supervisor is called, they should first review the footage of the point/issue in question, AND ONLY THEN go to the court to hear input from the players and umpire.

[@jasjas11]

Yea, atp are hustling the players. Mcronroe said tennis players get 15% of the revenue,its one of the lowest % earnings of the participants of any sports. They hire supervisors who don't do anything at all. And atp pushes back against anyone like djokovic who fights for better pay for players.

Because apparently the umpire think that Borges stopped the point by himself, which is a mistake. They would replay the point for hindrance but hindrance is never applying in case of noises from the crowd.

[@Pratiko2010]

@@Nicotine46 When Borges noticed the ball was in a favourable position for Garin to attack, he lowered his racquet and stopped moving, as if complying with the crowd's calls for "mala" and "out". What do you do in this case? Repeat the point because the crowd intervened, giving another chance to Borges to break? Give it to Borges without checking Garin's ball bounce point, when none of the linesmen called it out? It's a tough spot and the crowd sadly didn't help Borges in this point.

[@freakytea2815]

​@@Pratiko2010 It's actually not a tough call. Borges didn't stop the point in any discernable way (saying out, putting his finger up, etc.), and the crowd noise should have no bearing on the outcome of the point. Crowds make noises all the time, and the players should be used to that. Garin hit the ball out, and Borges won the point, period. Even a let wouldn't have been appropriate, but giving the point to Garin is a huge error in judgment on the part of the umpire.

The problem is the tournament referee doesn’t sit and watch the match. He gets called onto the court and he is supposed to listen to all the parties on what they have to say on the matter at hand and then he makes a final decision. Also, my understanding is that he can only be called into the court for issues relating to the integrity of the match and interpretation of the law, which this was the case but the umpire appeared to prove an alternative version of facts so yeah his decision was misguided by the umpire.

But i think Nowak had more of a claim for that then you can make in this match with Borges. It would be interesting what the rule book exactly says about what qualifies exactly as "stopped playing" or hindrance. My guess is, there is room for interpretation.

@@Bhavyo well the difference is that if I remember correctly, Nardi didn't point out with his finger but just stopped playing. This is a massive difference FROM THE EMPIRE POINT OF VIEW. Because from the other player point of view (Garin here, Djokovic for Nardi) this is clear that Djokovic was more impacted. There is no way Garin saw Borges calls his ball out in my opinion and he was complaining about the crowd not Borges.. So from TV point of view, it is point for Borges. From the empire point of view, turning his head the moment borges point his finger to say the ball is out, the empire should just go to check the mark of the ball and decide with this data. Just my opinion on this shit xd

Back in the day Cristian only played ATP and big tournaments reaching the final stages, I wouldn't be surprised if he soon drops down to ITF.

[@rangewarwick]

Umpire needed a bit of help. We all do every now and then. The line judges saw it all happen and they should be allowed to help clear up the mess. Poor supervisor, he did not see the point and was told the wrong version of events by the umpire it seems, so what is he supposed to do? As for Garin, surely he must have realised that the last shot was way out. Why did he not say anything? Tennis is great.

[@sloppygamer1291]

My POV: - If a call comes from OUTSIDE the court, the point continues, therefore Garin missed the forehand wide, and so the point should go to Borges - Umpire clearly makes a bad mistake (I don’t know how he can get it so wrong, but anyway), and he should have clearly seen that, rectified it, and given the point instead to Borges - I don’t know how the supervisor didn’t correct the call either, it’s an obvious decision (if anyone is at fault the most here, it’s the supervisor) - I know a lot of people are going to say Garin should have said something, offered to replay etc., but I don’t blame him honestly. I wouldn’t have said anything either if I was playing for thousands of dollars and ranking points (and I’m sure you wouldn’t to if you were in his shoes)

[@rbarreira2]

I don't know if the supervisor was actually able to see what happened though, since there's no video review system AFAIK.

[@sloppygamer1291]

@@rbarreira2 True, but Borges did describe what happened pretty much perfectly, and the umpire didn’t disagree with him. Plus the supervisor, as the name suggests, should be SUPERVISING the court. He should have seen what had happened and corrected the umpire.

NO, garin should have showed sportsmanship and fairplay. So yeah he's part to blame. When you know a bad call is in your favor and you take the point, that shows bad character and sportsmanship. Nobody likes players like that. Look at holger rune against cerunodolo with that crazy double bounce drama. They both looked at the replay on the screens back in the french open 2023, and rune didn't even concede that point and still took it. It's both the player and the umpire who should be at fault. If there was no replay to show to the crowd, then I would've easily given the benefit of doubt to rune.

kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJasc6eGoMtqa5I - back then Murray accepted to replay the point, but the referee made it clear that he already won the point and it is entirely up to him if he wants to replay it or not. Borges was not given this option, or any option at all.

[@duasympara7595]

True, Murray was class on that occasion. There was another occasion however at Roland Garros where a ball boy interfered on an gimme smash (think it was Troicki) where maybe Murray could have conceded the point for the emotional wellbeing of the poor ball kid, but didn't. Then again, given Troicki's general lack of sportsmanship, I can kind of understand why Murray chose not to concede the point. Garin's display here though is next level unsportsmanlike behaviour.

Chair umpire made wrong decision, should have been replay point but at the same time if Garin just hits the ball in then there would have been no issue. Garin also should have stepped in saying to replay but didn't when other players would have. Borges undeserving victim but sure serves the crowd right for that

[@pierre6963]

Should not have been replay, should have been point for Borges. Point has not been stopped and Garin made a fault

[@doraemon402]

A child could see that out of the three options (point for one, the other or a replay), the ref took the only one that made absolutely no sense at all. No logic, no job, mister. This man's lack of mental clarity affects the result of matches where people play for a lot of money. Something like this cannot go unpunished. Really, the player should be able to forfeit and sue the referee in these situations.

I understand that Garin feels wronged cause (1) Borges half stopped and (2) someone in the crowd yelled out. If the umpire had called hindrance for Borges stopping that would’ve been somewhat fair. Especially if Garin also stopped. Replaying the point because of interference from the crowd would also be somewhat fair. But Garin kept playing and missed. No other calls were made. Point to Borges

I get what the umpire called, but its totally debatable. He interpret that Borges stopped the point because the ball was out, but it wasn't. If you stop the point from believing it was out and its not, you lose it, doesn't matter what happens in the next shot. At the end the problem is the interpretation if Borges stop the point or not, I dont know if he actually look at the umpire before the point was finished.

[@ProgresoChileno]

That is exactly the point. I thinks it does look like Borges stops playing the point after someone in the crowd calls the ball out. I believe that is what Garin is saying. Anyway, Borges had lots of chances to break and blew them all away.
