“The atmosphere was heavy during the last Aix-en-Provence tournament. To everyone’s surprise, Corentin Moutet, hope of French tennis, was threatened with death by a Russian player.” The next time you come to the net, I will kill you! ” These are the words that threw a cold on the competition.
This incident, which goes beyond the limits of sports rivalry, raises many questions about ethics in the world of tennis. The behavior of the Russian opponent is not only unacceptable, but also disturbing, on several levels. It reveals extreme tension and verbal violence that does not have their place on a tennis court.
Moutet, a young 22 -year -old player, showed great professionalism by not responding to these provocations. But the incident nevertheless left traces. He aroused a wave of indignation and support for the young Frenchman, both the public and the other players.
Faced with this situation, the response of the organizers of the tournament and the management bodies of tennis is awaited impatiently. It is essential to punish this kind of behavior to preserve the integrity of sport and protect players.
In the meantime, Corentin Moutet, despite the incident, does not give up. He continues to fight on the ground with the same determination and the same courage that characterize him. An attitude that forces respect and that, we hope, will allow it to overcome this ordeal. ”
