[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just watched the whole thing via the NYTimes and she appeared very disrespectful towards the umpire. Berating him and insulting him. Unacceptable.[/quote] I just rewatched it and she's calm, but yes, emotional-- her voice squeaks a bit. He just looks like a smug prick trying to save face. He's like That teacher saying, ok keep going and you get a detention. Ok, 2 detentions, would you like 3? His little ego is too fragile. [/quote] I don't know if you saw the whole thing. She starts off pretty reasonable and trying to get the ump to see her point of view and then she just lost it, became distraught and on the verge of tears. She was legitimately angry and yelled at the ump. I think she was just having an extremely frustrating game and that call simply came at a really bad time for her. She took it as a personal insult and lost her cool. She's human, it happens. She's been playing tennis for a long time and she is a seasoned veteran of the sport. Do the umps typically make these kinds of calls on the top players? She seemed very insulted by it which is why I don't think it is a usual thing for a player at her level. [/quote]
