Video: Danielle Collins makes unusual request to chair umpire, asks cameraman to give her space

American tennis player and World No.17 Danielle Collins made an unusual request to the chair umpire during her match at the 2022 Guadalajara Open Akron.

The 2022 Australian Open runner-up asked the chair umpire to request the cameramen to back up and give her some space. She also personally requested the cameramen during the sit-down between games.

"Would you just ask the cameraman and like they can back up a little bit?" Collins asked the chair umpire.

"Can you back up please, Thank you," Collins told the cameraman.

The 28-year old would go on to lose to fourth seed Maria Sakkari, allowing the Greek star to rally from a one-set deficit to clinch victory in a tense three-set match.
