[@guillerpuebla]

He keeps being knocked out at 1R of every tournament so... Don't expect too much drama

[@Noa-cc9ur]

Still plenty of time to break racquets though

[@holymackenaw]

Great. Now everyone tries to start an argument over every little thing with the umpires. Because its surely their fault a ballgirl dropes the ball. Painful.

[@unforcedterror3136]

Kyrgios is just trying too hard to be offended all the time. It's like he wants to complain for the sake of complaining, and then picks anything he likes to rant about for minutes.

[@ZeZapatiste]

Bublik is just plain ridiculous on this one. You did hit the ground with your racket, just acknowledge that and move on. I bet he felt like a real man standing for his values but he was just a baby throwing a tantrum.

[@offsidev6059]

Seriously unbelievable that a grown man can act like that about a simple warning, which he 100% deserved

[@R.W.S.]

Gotta go with the umpire on the Bublik one. Bublik threw the racquet to the ground with anger, that's where the violation came from. He may not have damaged the grass, but you can't throw your racquet like that. He was completely wasting his time arguing and making it look like he threw it softer than he did.

[@guillerpuebla]

He was just gaslighting him

[@R.W.S.]

@Guillermo Puebla He was trying hard to Jedi mind trick him 😂

[@15Stratos]

he didn't hit it hard enough or smash it to get a warning,the umpire only gave him a warning because of the grass

[@R.W.S.]

@@15Stratos The rule is “players shall not violently, dangerously or with anger hit, kick or throw a racquet or other equipment within the precincts of the tournament site". He threw it with anger to the ground, that's why he got the violation. Obviously the umpire is worried about the grass getting damaged as well, because if the player throws it hard enough, it will damage the grass. He didn't throw it as hard as he could have, sure, but it was enough to warrant a warning from the umpire.

[@GXNicko]

Well, he did throw his racket down with a tad of force (not slamming it or anything like that), so I guess his representation was wrong, but Bublik's argument was basically fueled by the Umpire's comical reactions, which indeed where ridiculous. His logic with the slice made a lot of sense to me.

[@chiefmate5182]

Kyrgios again with the hypocrisy. Wants respect but doesn't give it. Wants the crowd to shut up when he's losing but AO 2022 incited crowds to act like fools. Abuses the umpires then asks how spectators can abuse him. Bloke is a flog

[@achnix3167]

Facts

[@bigrobsydney]

I think at this tournament one of the things (not all) that upset him was some racist comments. I think that's fair enough; the officials should clamp down on that and eject any spectators that engage in racist activities. There's no place for that. And part of this discussion more broadly is the amount of control the umpire has over the crowd, which is, in reality, not a lot. When things get tight, it's normal for small things to irritate.

[@achnix3167]

Bublik had no right to complain that warning. Kyrgios self-destructs like he always does.

[@lormon9995]

Tbh Bublik was onto something. I get it the rules say that you can't throw your racket to the floor for risk of damaging the grass, but if the court doesn't get damaged why should that cost you a warning? That rule is questionable imo

[@nendzzz]

@@lormon9995 as much as I enjoy watching Bublik, what he did was no accident. Had the grass been damaged, play could have been suspended which would have been awful for the organizers. It's just a prevention measure in my opinion.

[@DoDoTeVe]

Bublik is childish, the first time he threw the racket on the grass, that was intentionally and with power and after the code violation he started to threw racket like ,,by mistake and gently”. His argument ,,where is the damage” is ridiculous too because players very often receive a code violation for hitting a ball to crowd even if there is no damage too but there is a possibility that it can hit someone and hurt them.

[@lutovac_nikola]

Bublik is ridiculous and can't stand behind his mistake.. he was obviously provoking the judge and deserved to be disqualified

Sometimes I wish I was an umpire to shut some of this stuff down. Like the umpire can tell Bublik "you threw the racket down, that's it. If you drop it on accident that's fine. There's more damage when you throw it because there's more force" and anything else Bublik says doesn't matter. Shut that shit down

I always had in my head that tennis players are more respectful than some other sports but they are just allowed to whine on. In football and rugby you would be told to get on with the game. This man baby dropping his racquet and of course he loses as his mind isn't in the game anymore. Tennis has to realise it's competing against so many other things. I love sport and used to watch a lot of tennis but these players are just frustrating to watch and totally unlikeable.

[@savvytactics3428]

Yep. So often the umpire makes a correct decision but then play right into the player's hands by making the wrong justification for the decision.

Bublik you gotta pick your battles man, you might have a point but why antagonise the umpire over one code violation?

[@kineticdeath]

bublik asking if its unprofessional, while he carries on like a toddler who got told "no" after throwing food on the wall. Dudes lucky he didnt get anymore penalties i reckon, as he was definately acting unsporting. They say "dont bounce or hit the racquet it can damage the grass". Pretty clear cut. umpire at 17:20 "why me?"

[@lormon9995]

Tho tbh when Bublik said there's a difference between "it COULD DAMAGE the court" and "it DAMAGED the court" i think he's got a good point. Players should only get a warning if they indeed damage the grass, otherwise it's quite a baseless penalty

[@sylvia8071]

There are examples of players being immature persons lacking in respect for themselves and displaying disrespect towards others!!!

[@dumpygirl6736]

Kyrgios is an emotional player so he looks for some kind of "slight" from the referee to try to fire himself up, but he ends up trying to beat 2 opponents at once. Anytime he says "its embarassing," he's usually right, but not for the reasons he's thinking.

[@davo614]

Bublik is talking out of his arse. He deliberately threw that racket to the ground with force, he didn’t just drop it at all. It’s clear as day.

[@camembertdalembert6323]

​@@bigrobsydney "my point was that people running on the grass cause far more damage that a racket." Running on the grass is necessary for the sport. Tennis players can't fly (yet). The problem is not about comparing what makes the most damages to the grass. It's all about avoiding unnecessary damages.

[@RAY.POLARIS]

That's crazy I feel like matchs can be easily corrupt. It's all rigged. If you complain you get warning, fines . That's crazy you dropping your racket violently you get code violation.

[@meandermyself61]

Apparently Hawkeye's error is something like 3.6 mm minimum. With a very fractional line graze like the Kyrgios one, its just about possible it was actually out. Makes you wonder, there were a few absurdly close ones i saw at Wimbledon where the intersection of ball and line was like the tangent to a circle. Some big points too!

[@MrMartin48705]

Hawkeye can make mistakes, yes, and I believe something like you said is the max, so approx 3.5mm, and there were incredibly close shots in tennis since hawkeye was introduced. I think we should all support the new clay system with pics being taken when the ball makes contact, so something gets improved finally.

I'm still wondering how that aussie clown has to many fans, and the ATP consider him as 1 of the most relevants tennis players. Every tennis fan knows that respect is the most important thing in our sport, and he's the best example of how not to behave inside and outside the court. I'm Nadal fan, but wanted Nole to win WB because if this guy had won a GS would be an absolutely disgrace for tennis. Guys like David Ferrer didn't win any GS but his work hard deserved it. I enjoy your videos and channel, but I always skip the parts where Nick appears.

[@achnix3167]

Yeah i also wonder why humanity fails sometimes.

[@bigrobsydney]

Depends what you're a fan of. As a tennis fan, Nick has a huge serve, and huge forehand. Getting to the final of the worlds biggest grasscourt tournament says a lot about his game, and if just a few points had gone differently, he might have won the whole thing. From a tennis point of view, you have to respect the pure tennis there. If you want to consider other elements, that's fine. But that's your interpretation. I'd play devils advocate with you on this point, and just ask you a simple question; if Nick is so bad, how did he qualify for WB? How did he get so many points before WB? How did he beat all his opponents if he's so bad? And the flip side of that coin is, if the other players are so good, why didn't all the other players beat Nick? It took someone with 20 GS's at the time to defeat him, and no one else could do it; if he's so bad, then why?

@@bigrobsydney 1. I have never said that Nick is bad. In fact he's one of the best talented of this century, but the most brainless too. 2. With that serve he will remain in top60 easily, and he didn't win a lot of points before WB, dunno what are you talkin about. 3. This Wimbledon was the cheapest GS of the Open Era history. No Russian/Belarus players, no points awarded so a lot of players withdrawn, and many of them didn't give their 100%. Plus Bautista, one of the best grass players, injured. Also, he had an easy draw, got lucky in SF with Nadal's injury, and I gotta remind you that he lost 2 sets vs Jubb and Nakashima, very average players. 4. All his behaviour when the ball is out of game ruins all his talent and circus. If I want a show I watch NBA, but tennis is a sport of gentlemens and it's obvious that Nick is the opposite. 5. The worst part is that true meaning of tennis, the values that make me love this sport, could die because ATP and Media makes him a star. Respect is decreseang in players, crowd and all terms. Yesterday Kyrgios asked a spectator where he had to serve, on 40-0 3 match points vs Paul. An absolutely lack of respect that many of you support that kind of acts and even consider them as genuine.
