Melzer to Sousa in Geneva: If You Don’t Give Me the Point our Friendship Is Over
Things got a little strange on Wednesday between Jurgen Melzer and Joao Sousa at the Geneva Open. Okay, a LOT strange. On this deuce point at 3-all, set one, after Sousa scoops up a low-bouncing ball, Melzer halts play and starts to lecture his "friend," saying that what has just happened (Sousa, in Melzer's opinion, was cheating--the ball had grazed the ground before he hit it) was the worst thing that has ever happened to him from a friend and that if Sousa doesn’t give him the point it will be the end of the friendship.
Well, Sousa won the point and the match, but if Melzer meant what he said, he lost the friendship. Check out the video below:
