"Shut up!": When Murray Settled Scores with Fognini in Shanghai

Shut up!: When Murray Settled Scores with Fognini in Shanghai

A volley, a shout, and everything spiraled out of control. In Shanghai, Andy Murray couldn't stand Fabio Fognini's provocations and let his anger explode in a verbal exchange that will go down in the annals.

A legendary clash between Fabio Fognini and Andy Murray in Shanghai. Facing off in the second round of the Masters 1000, the Brit and the Italian had a little confrontation at the end of the third set, a pivotal moment in the match.

On a forehand volley from Murray, Fognini started shouting to try to disrupt his opponent. An unsportsmanlike behavior that escaped the chair umpire but not Murray. During the changeover, the two men crossed paths and tensions rose:

"You do the same thing every match, no matter who you're playing," the former world No. 1 told the Italian, before explaining to the chair umpire: "I had to play a volley and he starts shouting. Shut up! (addressing Fognini). And then he tells me 'Don't look at me' while he's shouting during the point."

The three-time Grand Slam champion ultimately lost in a nail-biter 7-6, 2-6, 7-6.
