"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.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
