Venus Williams surprised the fans with a somewhat unconventional debate with the main referee. The match was significantly affected by a strong wind, due to which the Americans repeatedly failed to hit when thrown into the pitch. In return, she heard a warning from the umpire judge for not complying with the twenty-five-second limit.
