Most tournaments now support automatic line calling with no human error involved.
Compared to other sports, you’re basically baby sitting here.
Three judgement calls, all gone the wrong way because of his backwards decision making.
Jack Draper very clearly shanks his ball into the ground.
The point should have immediately been awarded to Felix and kept the match going.
Allensworth of course thought nothing nefarious happened and ruled it to Jack, ending the match.
Allensworth blew this bad.
Unfortunately that aspect of tennis is not reviewable for some bizarre reason so his ruling was final.
you could tell where the ball landed within a .0003 millimeter margin for error.
But we can’t use replay to determine something as simple as this?
Oh but Allensworth has fumbled more that call recently.
you’re able to default a player for shouting “what the fuck are you talking about?”
Shelton himself was pleading with the umpire to not end it there.
Just an umpire on a power trip.
Worth noting when you get defaulted you lose all of your prize money and ranking points from that tournament.
Losing all of that would have been brutal.
Luckily for Denis those were reinstated after the match once the situation was reviewed by people with a brain.
And again in Cincy earlier this week Taylor Fritz was robbed of a clear point.
In the heat of play how are you not supposed to trust the system is operating normally?
There’s something about his name being Allensworth that seems to add up with his terrible umpiring.
Can’t let that dude step foot in Queens later this month.
Ump show city like you read about.
