Zverev to the umpire: "He just said the most famous Hitler phrase in the world. It's unacceptable. It's unbelievable."
The chair umpire then asked the person to identify themselves: "Who's the smart guy who said that? Raise your hand. Who said that?"
After the match, the USTA released a statement confirming that the spectator had been ejected from the stadium.
