Opelka is technically correct that the linesman and ball kids are a little too close. He’s also a giant ass for behaving that way and blaming his poor play on them. Just next level juvenile. Would love to see he and Kyrgios play though.

[@jdmrchem5]

The Wimbledon court that Opelka played is kinda too small for his size. I wouldn't want to play in the court that does not enough space and people being too near even it's 2 ft.. I wonder if he will complain if he plays in Centre Court. That's the best place to play tennis in Wimbledon and it has a lot of space for him to hit and reach for any balls within his range. Opelka did not have a good day, so he ended up blaming on the ball kids for his poor play. IMHO, the court is the problem, not the ball kids. At least, I want to see him and Kyrgios play since he respects Kyrgios and he does not call him a serve bot. Geez, what happened to him? He is supposed to be on par with the other ranked American players on the tour, but he fell off.

[@Tennislover511]

Hopefully Wimbledon will eventually have automatic line call like Australian and us open, do you think they’re keeping the line umpires for tradition?

[@Dom-yv4nq]

@@jdmrchem5 Unfortunately, that's how the luck of the draw is. No matter the tournament there are outer courts which just aren't the size of stadium courts, which are reserved for "high profile" players who bring in the money. Move up the rankings if you want to play on the big stage, pun intended

[@jdmrchem5]

@@Dom-yv4nq The problem is that Opelka is not as popular as the other marquee superstars. Maybe if he ever matches against Djokovic or any top player in the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th rounds, then he may see his time in Centre Court. It has so much room that he can use its size for his advantage. Opelka doesn't bring up enough money, plus people tend to not like the serve bot style of playing tennis. So, he's stuck with the smaller courts for a while. Even the US Open have smaller courts too.

[@Dom-yv4nq]

@@jdmrchem5 Yep, exactly my point. However, there's a spin to this... With the type of serve he has, receivers typically want to stand WAYYY back to receive, so "technically" he should hold an added edge over his opponents when serving.

@@batmon696 Yeah, except the timing is way off with Sonego. Nadal himself grunts as well but you can tell that is a natural grunt of exertion or breath control, with Sonego it's long after he has hit the ball, always when the ball is crossing or has already crossed the net.

On some level, I sympathize with Nishioka. There’s a pretty giant difference between gently throwing your racquet on the ground in frustration and smashing it to bits. I mean, was that really necessary for the umpire to add gasoline to the quite tiny fire?

[@_Simkim]

Yes, on grass they have a much more strict standard, because it can damage the court. The best way to prevent it is to draw the line way before that happens.

[@Shabbydodo]

It's just the rules man, if you can't control your racquet throwing them that's a skill issue on your part

[@Tennisisreallyfun]

@@Shabbydodo Well thanks for telling me about skills, certainly I wouldn’t know anything about tennis skills even though I’ve been playing all my life and actually just finished up my club’s annual doubles tournament yesterday (my team finished third overall in case you were wondering). Sorry, but this isn’t skill. This is emotion, and emotions are a big part of tennis, and this was not some court damaging banger, this was just a light little toss. Say what you will, but this is an umpire with a stick up his ass, no different than a traffic cop with a grudge against those with better educations who can afford nicer cars. Rules are rules, and they’re there for a reason, but as is usually the case with anything absolute, grey areas are not accounted for, and unfairness often has a healthy place in the game as a result.

[@Tennisisreallyfun]

@@_Simkim I understand that, but surely you can agree that this wasn’t something that would damage the court in any way, yes? Of course the rule needs to be there to address such conduct when it comes up, but in the spirit of fairness, I think umpires need to be able to exercise their own discretion and use their own common sense to distinguish between acts that do and do not deserve swift punishment.

[@_Simkim]

@@Tennisisreallyfun I don't think it would be easier or fairer to leave the question of what degree of force constitutes a punishable offence to the umpire's discretion. I could understand your objection had Nishioka TOSSED the racquet, but he THREW it to the ground, lightly or not. To me, that motion in itself is clear enough to deserve the warning, regardless of the amount of force used. Which, again, cannot be easily determined by the umpire and would surely raise frequent questions regarding consistency.

Nishioka KNEW that smashing the racket is wrong. However, it is not technically damaging the court. Maybe multiple times. I don't know. 6. Mannarino's match is confusing cause it looks like he dropped the racket. But yeah, he smashed it. Again. 7. Evans again complaining about embarrasments. Just watch the Karatsev match. 8. Rafa is the G.O.A.T. of being respectful. He told the umpire about Sonego's weird grunting noises, and told him respectfully. We ❤Rafa. 9. Sonego was so pathetic. He just made grunting noises that distracted Nadal during their match. Terrible sport. 10. Medvedev clearly didn't show effort AT ALL. The highlight of the match was when the protestor was running around the court. Even Medvedev's wife was disappointed in his lack of effort. 13:05 11.

The vast majority of issues comes down to officials and their calls. Electronic line calling would eliminate so much of this. They could also use technology to determine IF a call interfered with a players shot, for example, if the call was made within (insert agreed interval from discussions with the players council). 0.1 seconds? 0.2 seconds? Etc. I just find it incredible that some of the calls at a place like Wimbledon can be so wrong, at crucial times. The tournament generates something like £160m and provides about £35m to the players, so surely they can afford an electronic line calling system. They dont even need to buy the system, as it could be leased by every tournaments, and only have to pay for set up costs as it moves from one tournament to another around the circuit. There are also Playsight courts permanently setup, in suburban courts, so it cant be THAT expensive if it came down to it.

I think Nadal this time was wrong and he knows that. Sonego’s grunt is fastidious (I’m Italian and I hate him doing that) but you can’t go to the net to tell your opponent to stop his grunt. Specially when he breaks you. He had two hours to tell Sonego to stop but he choose the break moment when he was in difficulty. Sonego is a nice guy, you can like him or not, but he’s very professional and after the match he wished Rafa good luck on Instagram. So, Nadal was wrong for me but I really appreciate him to say that he what he did wasn’t correct

[@lubomirradev9801]

Wrong - no. Could tell him earlier - for sure. I'd tell him every time. Making noises after the ball's on the other side is absurd. And why do we need to know you're Italian? Might as well tell us if you like tall or short women. Makes no difference, just speak your mind without unneeded details

The thing is, Sonego often grunts more egregiously towards the end of sets. And nobody else was saying anything for that long, I assume Nadal was probably thinking that he has to be the person to do it. It’s still better to speak up late than it is to just be silent the whole time in most cases. Even if it isn’t really in Nadal’s place to do it, blatantly outrageous grunting shouldn’t just be left alone to spread itself through the game. In my opinion, a player’s duty is to beat their opponent with their tennis and their shots, *not* with the noise that comes out of their mouth.

[@lm10goat]

@@theaviator1152 I understand your point but believe me, Sonego doesn’t do that for annoying his opponent. Rafa could speak to him in the locker room after the match, not after lost his serve

@@lm10goat does that mean all Italians are the same? Doesn't make sense mate, thats the thing. Its the same as "I'm a fan of him but he was wrong". You explained yourself well, your origins don't contribute to nothing

[@lubomirradev9801]

@@lm10goat "he doesn't do it to annoy". DUDE, have you ever played something in your life? The grunt is to release breath, and take one in easily after. Like in boxing and many other sports. Why would you need to do it 5 seconds afterwards??? Its a poor, unsportsmanlike strategy to distract. And thats a given

[@knizekim3444]

I like Nadal, but he should have let the umpire do the talking. A little unsportsmanlike, but I do agree that grunting was too much as well.

@@jaer8395 The thing is, Nadal grunts consistently. He does it almost exactly the same, same length, same loudness, etc from start to finish. Sonego doesn’t.

@@theaviator1152 No one else has EVER complained about Sonego's grunting, which he constantly does when playing. Also, why couldn't Nadal have just told Sonego to stop grunting earlier in the match, say after 20 mins or so, why did he wait until being broken to do so?

Djokovic was calling the ball out with the line judge, but even if he was trying to challenge, you are right about it not being counted because the ball is out

That's crazy I feel like matchs can be easily corrupt. Manipulated. It's all rigged. If you complain you get warning, fines . That's crazy you dropping your racket violently you get code violation. They have to understand that's sportsmanlike , players have emotions sometimes it feels good to evacuate your frustrations/ anger that's human .

Thos grunts are intentional from sonego, thats actually the most disgusting grunt as it changes everytime.

[@pooolish334]

Doesn't matter what people say i think Rafa was in the right telling Sonego his grunts were too late, why? Because he went first to the umpire and he didn't do anything about it, the grunting kept bothering him and he had to do what he had to do. His excessive screaming and late grunting have been a slight problem and someone had to adress it.

[@nickharland9207]

If the umpire doesn't talk to the player, then you talk to the umpire again, not to the other player. The umpire handled it very badly, but Nadal was still in the wrong.

[@pooolish334]

@@nickharland9207 He's in an important match, and if it's bothering him aka, messing with mindset and momentum, then he shouldn't have to endure that when he already stated to the umpire that his opponent was being disrespectful. He could even lose the game because of something like that, and Sonego should have been more understanding of the situation insted of taking it so personal. Yes this was the umpires fault but don't make it look like Nadal was doing something wrong when his opponent was the one being disrespectful and the umpire not handling it how it should have been.
