Drama. And Kokkinakis can’t buy a forehand since

Jaume Munar came from 2-5 down in the second set to defeat Thanasi Kokkinakis 7-6, 7-6 and was also an end to the game that prompted a two minute handshake that turned heated at the Madrid Open.
Kokkinakis at 4-2 up in the decider went to the umpire with an issue and heard Munar talking on the other end of the court and said 'bro you don't shut up'.
"I just thought it was rich him talking as he has done the same the whole time," said Kokkinakis to the umpire. "When you called the score, I turned around and then you said it in Spanish, I turned around inside 13, that's too quick."
Then now for the handshake as Munar went to Kokkinakis after winning. "Don't tell me to shut up again."
Kokkinakis responded saying "or what?" and they had a heated debate for a while post match before seemingly working things out.
Here for the handshake. Jaume Munar: “Don’t tell me to shut up again” Thanasi Kokkinakis: “Or what?” Madrid temperature is heating up. 🔥 Glad they seemed to work things out in the end.
