The French Tennis player did not have a very fair attitude during the last set of his semi-final against Karen Khachanov.
SATURDAY,
Ugo Humbert qualified for the final of the Rolex Paris Masters. The French tennis player disposed of Karen Khachanov in three sets (6-7 (6), 6-4, 6-3), helped by an injury to the Russian which occurred in the final round.
Hit in the right leg, the Moscow native was unable to defend his chances in the last four games of the match. Which didn't stop the Frenchman from celebrating his points as if nothing had happened. An unfair-play attitude, which some sports journalists did not hesitate to denounce.
Humbert, a lack of fair play attitude
“Celebrating points like Humbert does against an injured player like Khachanov, it's quite debatable, underlined editorial director of the Spanish site Punto De Break. Your rival can barely move and you celebrate points and cheer the crowd like you've won a 40-point rally. I don't understand. »
Karen Khachanov did not at all appreciate Messin's displays of joy. “At the net, I ask him to stay a little calm and show respecthe confided in a post-match press conference. This is no way to behave. I'm always fair play, I'll praise him if he behaves like a normal person. »
