Zverev gets angry with referee after being punished in Miami

Alexander Zverev, number five in the world, was pistol-whipped by the chair umpire, Greg Allensworth, after receiving a warning for not serving within the time limit.

The moment was 2-2 in the second set with 40 equals. He questioned the referee’s decision saying that it had taken longer due to the amount of wind that had come in at the time, he seemed irritated and then played the following points very well, confirming the serve against the Hungarian Fabian Marozsan, 57th placed. At the end of the game he again questioned the judge’s decision.

Marozsan has only lost one game in his short career against top 10 players and has already won two at this Masters 1000 tournament in Miami. The match is valid for the quarterfinals.
