Taylor Fritz and Corentin Moutet was engaged in a heated discussion during their Queen's Club Championships opening round tie as the American aim to continue his exceptional grass court form from Stuttgart where he won the title.
The umpire in the end had to step in and separate the two players from any further barbs. Albeit Fritz in the end ironically saw the funny side of it all. Fritz took on Moutet in the opening round but his form didn't continue as the Frenchman sealed it 6-7, 7-6, 7-5.
Ironically as a result, it was Moutet that had the last laugh as after the argument, Fritz was seen smirking on his bench. But Moutet went on to win anyway. It nearly was sparked again as Fritz hit Moutet directly in the face causing the Frenchman to go down.
But thankfully he was able to continue and accepted Fritz' apology. Now the American moves on to his next tournament, Moutet on the other hand moves on at Queen's Club.

- Maybe she's receiving hints that it's time to take a break if Gauff and suspended matches are too much for her.

And of course, being a Wimbledon champion is wholly reliant on these two factors alone. Mental and physical preparation, training, mindset, level of fitness, tactics, competitor analysis etc. clearly have nothing to do with the match outcome. My position is borne out by the facts - of Wimbledon open women’s single champions, 29 have been American, whereas the whole of the rest of the world has only managed 27. This imbalance needs to be urgently addressed 🤣Paul10118-06-2025
- The general pattern has been Loser Bettors attacking people better than themselves through (anti)Social Media. The majority of threats and disgusting comments come from those who lose their lunch money, allowances, and rent money in online bets.mandoist17-06-2025
- Just realize the problem, then address the problem. Don't bullshit everyone (actually only yourself) for over a week and finally admit a simple mistake or misjudgement. It's never a good idea to try to justify shaky comments instead of owning them. Quicker one makes an admission of somewhat poor judgement, the sooner it goes away.mandoist17-06-2025

- BBC sports coverage blows anyway. Two most obvious reasons = They can't seem to shut their mouths often enough -- and they will bounce from one event to another at will. Not to mention show 90% of a sporting event and cut it short to go to regularly schedule programs! In short, BBC sucks.mandoist14-06-2025
- Jimmy, how much more pause are you talking about? By the time the match ends to the time they stage is erected and they mount it to accept the award is about 10 minutes. All players are not at the same maturity level. Culture and one's upbringing has a LOT to do with how players each respond to a loss. Some players just need to learn how to exercise self-control. It isn't everything that you want to say that you should say.Rapunzel11-06-2025
