The Scot is even more angry at one of the long breaks that have brought a lot of criticism to his opponents in the past few weeks. “What is he doing there? It never took me so long to go to the bathroom,” Murray said to the referee, who was obviously angry, and continued to moan.
About eight minutes Sisi Pass, The third place on the seed list, disappeared in the catacombs. By then, Murray had given him an unforgettable battle. The injury-stricken veteran was a better player for most of the game and brought him back to Wimbledon, New York and Memories of great victories in the Olympics. Only the long rest of Sisipas made him lose his rhythm.
“Lost respect for him”
Murray later explained that he was mentally able to cope with this interference. The bigger problem is the physical effect: “When you play such a cruel game, you just calm down and then suddenly stop for seven or eight minutes.” Especially metal hips.
After the third sentence, the Greeks have allowed themselves to be treated for no reason. “He is an excellent player who performed well in the game, but I don’t have time to do this antics,” Murray said after losing five sets. “I have lost respect for him.”
Sisipas is known for taking tactical breaks during the game, the last time it was Alexander Zverev Complained about this after a dramatic semifinal in Cincinnati. “I like to win with tennis and lose with tennis. Some players don’t,” Zverev said after the game. But what Sisipas said was also right: “I didn’t break any rules.”

Andrea Petkovic and Angelique Kerber can understand Murray’s anger. “In general, this has become a tactic used by young players,” Petkovic said. You and Kerber would rather “continue the game with your broken finger” rather than disappear for a few minutes during the game. Regardless, Sir Andy would never think of this-despite the pain in his hip.
