Yes I saw that too just shoddy officiating.Felix is usually composed but he had to speak up against the umpire who looked like he was high on something. These umpires deserve a player like Kygrios who can check them.
If the players get UE's called on them how about we start calling UE's on the umpires? And I'd like to see some kind of fine or reprimand if they have too many UE's. That one last night takes the cake. Felix was the furthest away and he saw it. Why couldn't the blind umpire and Draper? The ball was right in front of the ump's face and he still he didn't see it? And Draper is staying on the fence on purpose. "Well I didn't see it I was busy looking at my opponent". Felix asked the guy, unless you are 100% sure w/o any doubt whatsoever, we should replay the point. Felix says what will you do when you watch the replay and know you were wrong? I'll apologize to you later. What kind of Tom Foolery is that? Jack can sit on the fence all he wants, he knew that was a double bounce and didn't call it on himself. Instead of asking for a replay that he knows doesn't exist yet, he should have just called it on himself. Don't like cheaters. Hopefully the Danish Angel will send him packing later.
The umpire should have least said a replay
Felix seems to an honest guy,and Draper probably just wanted to go off the court quickly.
That's exactly what I think about the Draper. Player always knows if his shot was legit or not, but decided to act a fool and called for non-existing video replay rule. There is something to be said about the fair play and now we know where Draper stands. Too bad it happened to FAA, he is too nice for these low punches.
