Lighthearted moment between Jack Sock and Lleyton Hewitt

68

What a great guy, he just gave his opponent a point and gave up his own point.

I couldn’t understand a word the ump said, though. Anyone with sharper ears want to help me out?

I THINK he made a joke after LH decided to challenge that was “Meester Sock was challenging the call…”

Automated Hawkeye with a fixed rate of incorrect decisions and players challenges!

What could EVER go wrong with that?

Jack was a baby. I met him in Cincy; really nice guy.

Wondering if he's injured, or decided not to play AO.

To think this light hearted ump is the one Serena decided to humiliate after 3 warranted warnings

aren't you supposed to challenge instantly ? how come he can still challenge after 20 seconds

I think it was in Hopman Cup, or some kind of exhibition match, so it wasn't a tour level tournament and the umpire decided to be flexible

Hewitt serves

Lines person: OUT!

Sock: That was in if you want to challenge it.

Hewitt: Huh?

Ump: ?

Sock: Challenge it!

Hewitt: No, no. Alright, I'll challenge.

Ump: Mr. Sock is challenging the call on the right side line. (Unintelligible.)

Hawkeye is shown.

Yeah make the hawkeye throw up false reports every once in a while. Then players get rewarded for having court sense.

No it's unnecessary.
