At the Rome Masters ATP tournament there was a scandal when tennis professional Benoit Paire first cursed the tournament management and then made a scandalous, listless appearance.

  • The French tennis professional

    Benoit Paire

    was unable to

    attend

    the US Open due to a

    corona infection

    *.

  • Instead, he competed in an ATP tournament in Italy and made a

    scandalous appearance

    .

  • Among other things, he tried

    to humiliate

    a

    ball boy

    with an action.

In addition to the overwhelming number of well-informed professionals, there are also a

few hotheads

who repeatedly

attract

attention on the court

with their inappropriate

behavior

.

One of them is Frenchman

Benoit Paire

, currently number 23 in the world.

At a tournament in Italy Paire could hardly contain himself during a match against the Italian Jannik Sinner and caused a

scandal

with several gestures and actions

.

Scandalous appearance by Benoit Paire: Violent accusation against tournament management on Twitter

It all started before the

US Open

* when the Frenchman received a positive result for the

corona virus

*, which prevented his participation in the Grand Slam tournament *.

The professional then came into

quarantine

, which he had to spend in a hotel; his room is said to

have been

too small

according to his own statement

.

After several days of isolation, Paire traveled to the tournament in Rome, where, given his limited

preparation time

, he asked the tournament management whether he could not

play

on

Tuesday

instead of Monday

.

But his request was

denied

, whereupon Paire went into a defiant phase lasting several days.

On

Sunday he rumbled heavily against the tournament management

on

Twitter

: “A

shitty approach

!

Thank you, @InteBNLdItalia (Twitter appearance of the Masters tournament, ed.).

I only made one request, and that was

to play

on

Tuesday

so that I could train one more day after what happened to me in New York.

And after I play against an Italian, you put me on Monday. ”Of course, Paire didn't do without hashtags * and added the keywords #super #BRAVO #goodjob and #notfair to his tweet.

PROGRAMMATION DE MERDE !!!

Merci @InteBNLdItalia 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 J'ai fait une seule demande c est de jouer mardi pour avoir un jour de plus d'entraînement avec ce qu'il m'est arrivé à NEW YORK et comme je joue un Italy vous me mettez Lundi !!

#super #BRAVO @atptour 👍🏼 # goodjob #notfair

Benoit Paire causes a scandal: listless appearance against local hero - the referee is also tackled

Pair's pent-up anger finally discharged in the

first-round match of

the ATP tournament at the Stadio Pietrangeli in the Italian capital.

After just an hour the game was over, with

2: 6 and 1: 6

Paire embarrassed himself against Sinner after a choleric appearance.

The three-time ATP tournament winner lived up to his reputation as a

scandal player

on Monday.

In the Italian's last service game, Paire

deliberately

played the returns

over the court or heaved them into the net and acted emphatically

without drive

, and the 31-year-old made no great effort to move.

On top of that, he also

messed

with the

referee

and threw balls and his bat around him.

Riots at Rome Masters: Benoit Paire wants to humiliate ball boys - but the referee intervenes

The absolute

low point

sat Paire when he a

Bottle

deliberately left behind on the tennis court, so they probably one of the

ball boys

should lift.

The tennis portal

Punto de Break

first reported on the humiliating gesture

.

The referee admonished Paire as a result, whereupon he shot the bottle with his

bat

out of the court.

À Rome, Benoît Paire a fait sa Cinecittà, normal.

He then gave a clarifying

interview

in which he sarcastically summed up his performance: “I didn't play for ten days, I was only allowed to be in my room.

So it was a

good workout

.

I'm happy to have played an hour, ”said the 31-year-old professional.

Only a few days ago

Novak Djokovic was

disqualified at the US Open, now there is the next excitement.
