VIDEO: Hilarious exchange pre-match between Azarenka and Keys as Belarusian makes joke about umpire

A brilliant situation happened at the WTA event in Guadalajara when Victoria Azarenka teased umpire Marija Cicek before the match.

While the Croatian umpire was explaining the usual rules for the players Aazarenka teased her by mentioning the error she made the day earlier. For those that did not see it, Cicek made a terrible error in the Stephens Bencic match where she awarded a point to Bencic that should have not been awarded.

Stephens protested and while explaining it became apparent that Cicek got the sequence of events wrong. Luckily it was not a consequential mistake as Stephens was able to win the match and move on. Azarenka said:
