"Game, set and match Tsitsipas": Mohamed Lahyani's hilarious mistake in Shanghai 2023
An improbable scene in Shanghai 2023: Mohamed Lahyani, star ATP umpire, officially declared the victory of... Tsitsipas, when the triumph actually belonged to Ugo Humbert.
We're in the third round of the Shanghai Masters 1000. Stefanos Tsitsipas, fourth seed, loses for the second time in his career against Ugo Humbert after a thrilling duel (6-4, 3-6, 7-5).
While the Frenchman fiercely celebrates this victory against his opponent, chair umpire Mohamed Lahyani makes a rather amusing mistake by announcing Tsitsipas as the winner of the match.
A huge blunder that wasn't noticed by Humbert.
