The American Frances Tiafoe He was absent from the Shanghai Masters 1000 ATP tournament. He lost in the third round to Russian Romain Safiullin 5-7, 7-5 and 7-6 (5) in 3h.04′ of the match to face the rival who will face Novak Djokovic this Wednesday in the round of 16.
But the loss could cost him more as he went berserk after shaking hands with his rival, committing himself to seriously insulting the chair umpire. The fine is certain, the possibility of a suspension depends on him because his words are disqualification on a track.
Tiafoe’s anger came from the ‘warning’ of the chair umpire, the Ecuadorian Jimmy Pinoargotefor going over the 25″ serve. He was second, which meant he lost the first serve, having to play the second as a crucial point as the scoreboard was 5-5.
When the elimination was complete, Tiafoe yelled at the referee, shouting loudly. “”You rude! Fuck you, man! Seriously, screw you! The rude man! Fuck. You made the game, do your damn job! “I’ve been fighting and running for my life for three hours,” he said.
