Atp Acapulco, Zverev madness: takes a racket from the judge’s chair, disqualified

–

The German is punished with a warning and loses the game with an ace. At that point Sascha’s mental equilibrium plummets: he goes to the judge’s chair and pulls a total of four rackets in the direction of his legs, not hitting them just because the man has the reflexes to avoid the impact. Still in the throes of fury, once seated Zverev gets up immediately, throws the last racket to the turret (lower than in the previous points) and continues to insult the referee. The ATP decision immediately disqualified the player from the singles tournament in which to challenge compatriot Gojowczyk in the round of 16. Heavy fines are expected for the Hamburg player and a more prolonged disqualification from the circuit cannot be ruled out.
