The 8 Dirtiest Plays in Tennis (Controversial Moments)

[@kentlewis6604]

USTA explanation of intentional hinderance: "...any movement that is made intentionally in order to distract the opponent, such as waving the arms or racquet or stomping feet can be claimed as a hindrance."

[@SoSo-li6dn]

okay - feel its warranted to try it if you opponent is letting you - goal keepers do the same - you lose some positioning to gain some distraction and some people will be more affected than others.

The Millman this is completely blown out of proportion. 1, he's the one serving, so all or 99% of sweat is gonna be off that ball by the time it reaches federer 2, he probably was just doing it for a last sec dry off of his left hand since he's a 2 hander on his BH (which BTW I've only seen players with 2 handers do this) 3, Millman is one of the STRICTEST sportsmanship players on tour, he's given points on his own volition from double ball bounces, net touches the umpire doesn't see

[@kylepiscitello8889]

Iga actually acknowledged her distracting hand waving on social media after the San Diego 2022 final and chastised herself for doing it (after being called out by people, of course). She stated that she would never do it again. And in 2023, I don’t believe she ever did that again.

[@HeavyTopspin]

It's not unique to her: Gael Monfils will do this too, literally dashing towards the net and waving his arms when he pops up an easy overhead.

Murray not giving the point is an absolute disgrace to the sport.. If I was in Troicki's position I d have humiliated him right away in front of everyone..

[@NamesAreRandom]

If you were to talk to pro's they'd basically say never give a point and just stick to the umpire's call. The problem is the moment you give a point then you expect the other player to reciprocate and if you feel they don't it gets nasty. This can get out of control, grudges develop. Professionals want to keep it professional and the best way to do that is to just keep to the official rulings knowing you win some and you lose some.

[@huzcer]

@@NamesAreRandom why do you see the World number 1 and 2 Djokovic and Alcaraz conceding points at times then when they know the incorrect decision has been made. they do it because they would expect the correct decision to be made for them. otherwise the point of actually having the rules of the game is lost.

[@richietaylor9870]

@@huzcer It can hardly be called a 'dirty play' though, not unless he'd arranged for the ball kid to run onto the court beforehand. And who know's, perhaps Troicki wouldn't' have won the point? He could have done a Djoko-smash and totally shanked it, or maybe Murray gets a racket to it and gets the ball back in. Since you can't say with 100% certainty that this couldn't happen, it's not fair to dock Murray a point that he hadn't definitively lost. And I don't really see what World No. 1 or World No. 2 has to do with it. Murray has, after all, been both before.

[@chrisak49]

The worst case I've ever saw was Anabel Medina Garrigues vs Serena Williams in 2013. Anabel during the changeover breaks would demand the balls from the ball boys and then purposely rub them and destroy them on her racquet. She did this during a clay court tournament so the balls would break down and play even slower and make it harder for Serena to hit winners against her.

If these are the 8 dirtiest plays you could find it says a lot for tennis. 3 of these weren't even bad plays, they were bad calls (judgment) from the umpire and had nothing to do with the players. And 1 of them was Djokovich turning his back to an incoming smash. The only shocking 1 here was Gaston's action, which rightly got him a huge fine.

[@jarrettpeeples9745]

On top of that, the Murray match wasn't even a bad call. It was just super unfortunate for Troicki that the ball kid got confused. The umpire just did what he legally had to do.

[@HawkOfGP]

As said in the beginning of the video, the rules of tennis are such that playing dirty is quite difficult in the first place. You're just typically not going to get away with more than very subtle or very occasional things in umpired professional matches. At more amateur level competitive play, however, there's of course a ton more potential for cheating with hooking or egregious foot faults or gamesmanship etc. because the players are calling the match themselves.

[@TheRafaelBond]

You think putting a ball out your pocket shoud deduct you 155 thousand? Are you absolutely insane? Thats almost half of what Gaston earned in his CAREER

[@Unshou]

@@TheRafaelBond Yes I do. But for context he didn't just pull a bull out of his pocket, he tried to cheat and deceive by claiming the ball fell out of his pocket when he's clearly seen to be throwing the ball.

Rather than going for the lines, he went for a safer shot selection, aiming for the middle of the court and using pace to prevent his opponent from having a real play on the ball.

The cameron norrie smash is completely and obviously accidentally hitting djokovic. Djokovic started walking away, but Norrie is watching the ball, he has no idea that djokovic stopped playing, which was kind of a pussy move TBH. Norrie has to make the overhead to win the point so he goes middle which is the correct play in this situation since it limits your opponent's time to react and angles to reply with.

You should edit out the Millman thing, you are not correct in your assumption of what he is doing. Millman is known for occasional cramps. What I would speculate is that he is massaging his abs. Only way to explain why he did it with TWO balls and then threw one back to the ball boy/girl. You can also see some discomfort in his face. Also his shirt doesn’t even appear to be wet. Another reason is players never wet tennis balls because it slows them down. You often see players drenched in sweat, and so they stop putting tennis balls in their shorts pockets for the second serve. Because they don’t want them wet. Total misrepresentation of Millman in my opinion.

[@rigardbobard2361]

Anyone that plays tennis knows it’s cheating to change the material condition of the ball. The notion that he’s not sweaty after 4 sets is as daft as saying he wasn’t doing it for an unfair advantage. Typical aussie behavior considering they descend from criminals 😅

[@ceciliaSF-TX]

Umpires have NO role in coaching, or impacting the match by letting players either take too much time between serves or slowing the game down. Like that lady who refused to make the opponent be ready for the serve: recently, Coco was serving - she had to wait for the other player to step up to the line. Coco complained & The umpire actually told Coco that she was serving too fast. First, totally not true. Second, not her place to slow things down. Clearly showing favorites here!

Millman was not trying to wet the ball. He was rolling it to reduce the fluff. After a new ball has been played for a few games, the outer material gets fluffed up. This increases air friction and shows the ball down. Many players do it, including myself. I'm pretty sure Lendl did. It actually restores the ball to the condition it was in when it was fresh out of the can. Not cheating at all.

[@weekendhacker]

True this. The AO Dunlop balls get fluffed up in no time. Not many players like them.

[@Canifton]

The physics here don’t make sense. If you have ever had someone sweating a lot, and putting the ball in their pocket and you can feel that it is now becoming moist, the ball never speeds up. Try it out sometime on the core. The nap absorbs that moisture, and that makes the ball heavier and increases the fluffiness. Unless the ball is soaking wet, which would make the nap flatten down. Like I say, try it out some time. Take a spritzer and spritz the ball lightly. Now hit some shots and see if the ball is suddenly faster. It won’t be.

If you see typical Novak you know he’s going to fight for the point especially when Norrie is not know for having a strong net game. The apology could have been better though I will say that. Same with the Tsitsipas situation. Cannot stand him, but if he apologised then it wouldn’t have been bad coz that was a dog shit volley from Alcaraz and you’ve seen Kyrgios make a shot like that against Wawrinka so it’s not impossible but very unlikely, same situation with Kygs and Nadal at Wimbledon, don’t come to net if you can’t handle a ball been put at you.

There's nothing wrong with dotting or hitting the ball at your opponent with an overhead smash or whatever (which could be with the purpose to jam your opponent or possibly just to dot them), but I actually think the dude playing Djokovich changed his shot to an even higher percentage shot when Djokovich turned his back, because besides hitting it up the middle he also took some steam off the ball (I actually don't think it was intentional, but even if it was) . Djokivich is a stud, but in that one instance it's on him to attempt to play through the point... if he's going to turn his back then you really can't be upset if someone plays the ball in your direction.
