The ridiculous match point of a match at the ATP 250 in Umag, which ended in embarrassment and controversy: "I don't like that kind of thing."

One of the quarterfinal matches at the ATP 250 in Umag was quite a spectacle. The protagonists were Frenchman Titouan Droguet and Bosnian Damir Dzumhur , who won the match 3-6, 7-5, 6-2 in just over two hours. Although it was a hard-fought match, match point was definitely the turning point of the match, leaving the spectators speechless.

After turning the score around after losing the first set, Dzumhur waited for his opponent's serve to play the first of his two match points. Droguet, trying to turn his luck around, tried serving from underneath—with a kind of backhand—to surprise the Bosnian and try to hold on to the match. But the serve stayed in the net. On his next serve, he did manage to put the ball in play, but it bounced high, and the Bosnian focused solely on the return.

Droguet kept the rally going with a powerful forehand into the corner, which Dzumhur returned with a lob. He had it ready to smash , but it didn't. Droguet changed his mind in a flash and tried to hit it from behind with a flip of his racket. This trick didn't work either, and he ended up losing the point and the match.

Defeated, he waited for Dzumhur at the net to greet him, and when he said goodbye to the umpire, he gave him a look that said, "Well, I tried."

Is this the most unusual match point in history?! 🤯

After the match, the Bosnian explained his opponent's unusual behavior: " I was injured, but I don't like that kind of thing . If someone thinks they're okay, let them carry on, that's tennis. I won't even comment on match point. I was happy he did. Thank you for playing like that and making it easier for me."

He also referred to another moment in the third set when Droguet was 1-5 down and hit a ball into the box where the Bosnian's team was sitting in the stands. Dzumhur complained to the umpire asking for a penalty, but the referee asked for play to continue. "I have nothing against him, but sometimes it's better not to comment. Some have been disqualified for minor things. If he had hit someone, it wouldn't have been nice. Whatever happens, if the umpire doesn't consider it dangerous, fine, that's his opinion," the Bosnian commented.

"I like justice to be done, even if it's disastrous for me. I was 5-1 up, 30-0 down, and he broke me in that game at the end, but that's just the way I am, and I can't fight myself. It probably cost me dearly at times, but it doesn't matter; I don't like injustice," he concluded.

In this way, Dzumhur, ranked 61st, reached his tenth semifinal of an ATP tournament and awaits his next opponent, which will be decided this afternoon in the match between Argentine Camilo Ugo Carabell and Italian Luciano Darderi .
