Emotions of an American tennis player Francis Tiafoe The match played against Tallon Griekspor from the Netherlands in the third set of the Davis Cup group stage ended with the defeat of the USA team.
Grikspor, whose score was 5:2 in the third set tiebreak, made the score 6:2 by showing that the ball hit the court during the serve. Tiafoe disagreed with referee Richard Hay’s decision and broke his racket on the court after verbal arguments. For this, Hay gave the American a penalty point. Thus, the tied score became 7:2 and Grikspor won the match.
Since Botik van de Zandshulp defeated Tommy Paul in two sets in the first match of the Netherlands-USA match, Tiafoe’s penalty point caused the USA team to lose in this match.
