(VIDEO) 'It was out by this much': Jelena Ostapenko hilariously disputes clear ace by Victoria Azarenka in Australian Open defeat

Jelena Ostapenko left the commentators in stitches during her defeat to Victoria Azarenka after having issues again with line calls as the former two-time Australian Open champion prevailed 6-1, 7-5 against the Latvian to reach the fourth round.

Azarenka served an ace to make it deuce and all seemed to be good from both sides of the court but Ostapenko had an issue saying it wasn't in making a gesture towards her box that it was 'out by this much'. The commentators themselves had a hard time believing Ostapenko's case saying it couldn't have been more on the line.

But even in defeat, it is death, taxes and Ostapenko having issues with hawkeye and the line judges as she brought hilarity despite losing out in the end to Belarusian who continues her love affair with the Australian Open.
