Corentin Moutet has been fined $15,000 for unsportsmanlike conduct during his second-round win over Mitchell Krueger.

This was due to his behavior in the second set. Trailing by a set, the Frenchman lost a point when the referee announced that the ball had bounced twice.

At the changeover, he launched into a monologue: "How can you give a euro to a guy like that?

How can you waste euros like that? Or Australian dollars, whatever.

How can you do that? Seriously! Every night here, the referees get drunk.

And the next day, they're ruining games. How is this possible? I'm here, I fight, I work every day.

I fight to be here. And they ruin the game like that. And I'm supposed to stay calm?"

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.?
