"I'll be waiting outside if you have the courage," the heated exchange between Garin and Ugo Carabelli in Bastad
Camilo Ugo Carabelli advanced to the second round of the Bastad tournament after defeating Cristian Garin in straight sets (6-4, 6-4).
However, tensions flared between the two players when, during the handshake, Ugo Carabelli allegedly called his opponent a "bobo" (idiot).
Garin then became visibly irritated, while his opponent did not respond: "Why are you calling me an idiot? What’s wrong with you? I’ll be waiting outside if you have the courage."
After this tense moment, Ugo Carabelli will return to the court in Bastad tomorrow to face Botic Van de Zandschulp.
