The reason umpires are very conservative about disqualifying players is because tennis is an individual sport. You disqualify a player, and the match is over. The spectators paid a lot of money to watch the match, and the tournament organizers won't be happy if umpires disqualify players left and right.
That is just rude telling the kid off for not speaking English. Can he speak Chinese? no? How dare you bully the kid out of your own frustration! Keep up the good work, kiddo... we all have your back here!

Honestly it’s not even close to some of the other things in the video.

That is the tournament responsibility to put someone that can communicate with each other. If communication exist during the game between player and other person then it must put someone who can understand especially when its timing limited. Its not the kid problem but more organisers. Line umpires where they dont have any communication with player there you can put someone without knowing English.
@@andjelkojovanovic2852 Firstly no, it's not tournament responsibility to put translator, it's Chinese event that happened to be included in WTA tour. Maybe if there was a negotiation between event organizers and WTA to provide translator, but for what, what do you want to translate? Secondly, why not just learn: water, towel, please in LITERALLY 5 MINUTES and you can practice pronunciations on 12h flight or just on your training. Nobody said "Learn Mandarin" or "Learn Cantonese" AND for sure no one has said learn Kanji, and how to write it. Just 3 words and it's ok pronunciation, like if you meat someone who's English is 2nd language even if they say water weirdly you will understand them. Especially at tennis given as a ball boy there are 3 things asked of you, balls and help players with water and towels. Thirdly, there were translators, I'm not sure if hired by organizer but someone told child what was up, and that he needs to be faster or player will get penalized. That's why you see him running everywhere behind him with a towel so it doesn't happen again. If there were not official, people that go to tennis matches in China KNOW ENGLISH, so after the first time he knew what "towel" meant, and after 2nd what "faster" meant. There is no language barrier hindering player's ability, the only reason he lost is because he lost with himself and lost focus, and started to get verbally assault a child, couldn't keep himself from swearing and screaming at him, yeah he lost control of him whole self.
@@DrakesGhostWriter Maybe i expressed myself in wrong way but i never meant to put translator but pick kids who can understand a little bit of English. Ball kids go through all sort of training with balls from passing to general rules such as when its ok to run and to be honest I'm quite surprised if they dont teach them English words towel, water and ball. I'm not defending Verdasco he would whinge about anything just in general that ball kids should have priority who can understand English so it doesnt become issue in future.
In Spanish, “Pélamela” is a curse word. It’s sexual in nature. It’s like saying peel mi dick/penis. The fact he said it to what looks like an underaged girl was extremely inappropriate.
I don't find it too much strange, when you got sweaty and dirty hands and you still have to play... 🤷🏻♂️ Some of these argumentation sounds like someone who doesn't bother putting himself in other people's shoes 🤔
Verdasco is a sore loser in more ways than one. Intelligent players get their own towels. Not only Verdasco doesn't know much English, he hasn't done anything worth talking about. Pathetic
Getting mad at a child while you’re hitting a ball back and forth over a net is “my father was absent/weak” behavior. Grown men don’t get angry at children doing you a service.
One of the unintended consequences of COVID is now that the players are now responsible for their towels and I think that’s great. I lose all respect for players when they disrespect another human being, especially a child, for not getting them their towel to their liking.
@@hotmocha82 Pathetic. Only in tennis so called athletes can't cope with sweating. Snowflakes. And they also can't cope with not having slaves it seems
@@Nat-oj2uc yeah the ball boys have many other jobs besides serving the players, like uh... not sure. Also, personally, i dont entertain millions of people, but i might just be extra unspecial
I remember a few years ago I witnessed similar incident where an adult man doing this to a boy on the court. A few minutes later, his opponent shot the tennis ball and struck him squarely in the groin. I don’t know if it was on purpose, but the obnoxious man dropped to the ground in excruciating pain holding his “you-know-whats”.
@@85Wright Yes, it was good to see for sure. A full-grown adult man who was abusing a boy on the court, then getting hit in the “you-know-whats” by his opponent’s shot. I don’t know if it was an accident or done on purpose, but the man fell and rolled over in a fetal position squirming and holding his groin. He was in tremendous agony. 😩🥴
ANY disrespect act or word against an umpire or a ball kid should be punished. Have you noticed thats always come from very average players and never from REAL champions?
Yes, he said something true for sure! Speaking of 2024 olympics, that person named Imane Khelif has won the gold medal in boxing and in the female group where she doesn't belong at all since she is a male not a female! And this is what I personally call weirdos really lol!
"It was a joke, bro." Classic gaslighting. 'If you took it as abuse when I was abusive, YOU'RE the problem. What you SAW me do wasn't what happened.' A mean, manipulative 'joke' on a helpless target--in public--is abuse. And this was abuse of a child in a vulnerable position. I am disgusted that people join in on the gaslighting to defend this twisted troll.
Notice that all the dbags are losing. It has nothing to do with pressure, all competition has pressure, it has everything to do with character. The Prima Donna’s have no character.
Wow that was a child abuse infront of the world, whoever this no name player shouldn’t be playing tennis at all! Feeling sad for the kid who is trying to do his job!
To show so freely this side of a person on a widely broadcasted sports match, you have to imagine what they are like at home when the cameras are off. Or when they are visiting restaurants and talking down to waiters, valets, etc.
That umpire in the first clip getting ever more disappointed in Verdasco... The eye he keeps shooting at him is one of both extreme contempt for the man and a lament for humanity...
Absolute drama queens. I'm convinced that most of them act like this because in their head they are all number 1, but in reality they never can make it to the top.
The first guy is very rude extremely disrespectful to the ball boy. He shouldn’t play in any international competition/game. If he’s not banned, no ball boy should provide any help to him in the world. The ball boys are volunteers and they are also children. What he did was very disrespectful. Shame on him.

There is no language barrier hindering player's ability, the only reason he lost is because he lost with himself and lost focus, and started to get verbally assault a child, couldn't keep himself from swearing and screaming at him, yeah he lost control of him whole self.
@@DrakesGhostWriter Maybe i expressed myself in wrong way but i never meant to put translator but pick kids who can understand a little bit of English. Ball kids go through all sort of training with balls from passing to general rules such as when its ok to run and to be honest I'm quite surprised if they dont teach them English words towel, water and ball.
I'm not defending Verdasco he would whinge about anything just in general that ball kids should have priority who can understand English so it doesnt become issue in future.
"can you peel it for me" like what kinda baby says that lmao
In Spanish, “Pélamela” is a curse word. It’s sexual in nature. It’s like saying peel mi dick/penis. The fact he said it to what looks like an underaged girl was extremely inappropriate.
Was thinking that it would get shit on his hands and mess with him. Was he just being a prick?
I don't find it too much strange, when you got sweaty and dirty hands and you still have to play... 🤷🏻♂️
Some of these argumentation sounds like someone who doesn't bother putting himself in other people's shoes 🤔
@@MicuBamba you don't even have to touch the banana to peel it. The guy is a baby
@@MicuBamba Unless you're disabled or a baby, you peel your own damn banana.
Verdasco is a sore loser in more ways than one.
Intelligent players get their own towels.
Not only Verdasco doesn't know much English, he hasn't done anything worth talking about. Pathetic
I don't disagree about Verdasco but everyone uses the ball kids for towels before covid
The noise the guy is making at 7:20 is the most douchist thing in the whole video
Sounds like a 1994 street fighter video game.
Getting mad at a child while you’re hitting a ball back and forth over a net is “my father was absent/weak” behavior. Grown men don’t get angry at children doing you a service.
I'm sorry, but the "Imagine this guy in bed" comment was hilarious!
🤣🤣🤣
I've got new respect for Fognini for that comment!
Fognini roasted him lol
That’s classic Fognini for you 😂
One of the unintended consequences of COVID is now that the players are now responsible for their towels and I think that’s great. I lose all respect for players when they disrespect another human being, especially a child, for not getting them their towel to their liking.
Yeah I hate how there's a lot of servitude in the tennis and entitlement by players. They're useless people yet they think they're so special
Unfortunately this policy will be reintroduced in the USO
@@hotmocha82 Pathetic. Only in tennis so called athletes can't cope with sweating. Snowflakes. And they also can't cope with not having slaves it seems
@@Nat-oj2uc yeah the ball boys have many other jobs besides serving the players, like uh... not sure.
Also, personally, i dont entertain millions of people, but i might just be extra unspecial
@@dertyp1769 what's your point? You want to serve tennis players?
I'd be willing to bet EVERY ONE of them was losing the match. Which is no excuse, just childish. Tennis seems to bring out the child in the pros.
We can forgive those whose racket slipped off their hand, especially when they were in running momentum. It was unintentional.
Inflated egos and inflated winnings bring this type of mindset imo.
If I caught you talking to my kid like that, that'll be your last tennis match.
I remember a few years ago I witnessed similar incident where an adult man doing this to a boy on the court. A few minutes later, his opponent shot the tennis ball and struck him squarely in the groin. I don’t know if it was on purpose, but the obnoxious man dropped to the ground in excruciating pain holding his “you-know-whats”.
@@PerAllwin1963LOL , He deserves it😂
@@PerAllwin1963thAt would be so satisfying to see.
The phrase, "new balls please" comes to mind!
@@85Wright Yes, it was good to see for sure. A full-grown adult man who was abusing a boy on the court, then getting hit in the “you-know-whats” by his opponent’s shot. I don’t know if it was an accident or done on purpose, but the man fell and rolled over in a fetal position squirming and holding his groin. He was in tremendous agony. 😩🥴
Whoever invented the practice of having ball kids bring towels to tennis players was a slave driver.
Scottish king
Just imagine the infectious germs on the towels. The should reconsider the policy
The towel kid breakes my hearth.
Remember when Tennis was a sport of gentlemen?
When?
It's refreshing to see this type of content where there is no commentary telling me what is happening or how I should feel
When a player mistreats a ball kid..the world is watching..BIG MISTAKE...😂😂😂
ANY disrespect act or word against an umpire or a ball kid should be punished. Have you noticed thats always come from very average players and never from REAL champions?
NOW THEY GET THEIR OWN TOWELS!!!😂
A long overdue reform. I always thought it was disgusting that children fetched sweaty towels like slaves -- disgusting both hygienically and morally.
Yes, notice how they do not need them as often when they have to walk to get them.
Stop yelling your post in all caps.
@@robertveith6383 how you hear hes/shes yelling🤣
When someone starts bullying a ball kid, especially in public, it says a lot about a persons character. Shame on these players!
Those damned adultists
He said French are weirdos, after i watch the 2024 Olympics Opening, i believe him. 😄
OOOOOF I SEE WHAT YOU DID HERE 😂😂😂😂😂😂 🍆
Yes, he said something true for sure! Speaking of 2024 olympics, that person named Imane Khelif has won the gold medal in boxing and in the female group where she doesn't belong at all since she is a male not a female! And this is what I personally call weirdos really lol!
@@Chrismario880 She's female though. She has a genetic condition, but is female.
I know, every right wing nut in the world was whining about it😂
@@BlueNorth313nah she isn’t
"It was a joke, bro." Classic gaslighting. 'If you took it as abuse when I was abusive, YOU'RE the problem. What you SAW me do wasn't what happened.' A mean, manipulative 'joke' on a helpless target--in public--is abuse. And this was abuse of a child in a vulnerable position. I am disgusted that people join in on the gaslighting to defend this twisted troll.
07:32 Fognini absolutely right here.
oh I agree
And hilarious lmaooo "Imagine this guy in bed"
😂 he is right
Who's the guy that said "Come one! He has a squared head" ?
Rare Fognini W
Who was the ponytail refusing to shake hands? She must be terribly important.
Eugenie Bouchard, it wasn't the first time she refused shaking hands. She lost that match btw.
Not a good look for Canada. We are better than this.
She's insanely narcissistic. A truly horrible person.
@@furikakezthank goodness! bratty behaviour and she isn’t even that special 💀
isnt she a finished player (bouchard) lol
When tennis players think they are more important than everyone else .
Something about tennis screams “ entitlement” 😮
Uh… I’ve spoken English my entire life and when soy diva verdasco says “TOW il” I might not understand him the first time either.
I thought this was going to be 10min straight with John McEnroe…….
Notice that all the dbags are losing. It has nothing to do with pressure, all competition has pressure, it has everything to do with character. The Prima Donna’s have no character.
I would tell Verdasco to get his own towel "faster" then.
Verdasco isn't just rude and disrespectful, he was full on racist. Good to know cause I'll never support him, not like I did.
Now the rule is changed. Players itself should get the towel to wipe there sweat
Great to hear. Verdasco is a nasty douche bag
*In the heat of the moment, true colors comes out.*
Verdasco, King of the Douche.
it's kind of awkward that verdasco gets mad at the ball boy for not speaking english when his own english is poor.
He's lucky he has someone there to hand him a towel in the first place. Spoiled!
Taking it out on the kid who's running to get you the towel is the worst ever...
Tsitsipas is the biggest baby on the tour
sadly, i must agree with you, even though it hurts me to agree with you. Im Greek too
He's like "everybody are weirdos, I'm the only one normal here" what a clown :D
And his father too
@@petroszakhariadis8623sad but true, i have been supporting him since his beginnings, but I gave up
This generation of players if full of sociopaths
Isnt this a reupload?
Wow that was a child abuse infront of the world, whoever this no name player shouldn’t be playing tennis at all! Feeling sad for the kid who is trying to do his job!
Tiafoe should feature. All his swearing and mumbling
To show so freely this side of a person on a widely broadcasted sports match, you have to imagine what they are like at home when the cameras are off. Or when they are visiting restaurants and talking down to waiters, valets, etc.
Verdasco was cruel
Cruel is not the word...
I watch Ostapenko’s matches just to see her facial expressions and arguments with the chair umpires. 😅😂
That umpire in the first clip getting ever more disappointed in Verdasco... The eye he keeps shooting at him is one of both extreme contempt for the man and a lament for humanity...
The best part of the first clip is the volunteer following the disrespectful guy with the towel lol
You can tell a lot about a person by how they treat staff members.
Absolute drama queens. I'm convinced that most of them act like this because in their head they are all number 1, but in reality they never can make it to the top.
The Fognini part was hilarious
Because he was getting fognini in the ass
He probably wanted to be a tennis player and im sure he was happy... you totally broke his dream.
The first guy is very rude extremely disrespectful to the ball boy. He shouldn’t play in any international competition/game. If he’s not banned, no ball boy should provide any help to him in the world. The ball boys are volunteers and they are also children. What he did was very disrespectful. Shame on him.
