VIDEO: Controversy for Sakkari in Pliskova tie as racket seemingly touches ball heading out
WTAThursday, 16 March 2023 at 00:04
Maria Sakkari was embroiled in controversy on Tuesday as the Greek ace was accused of cheating by Karolina Pliskova as the Czech fell in the Last 16 at Indian Wells.
Pliskova refused to look Sakkari in the eyes during the handshake and this is why. During the third, she said that Sakkari touched the ball at the net on a point which looked to be heading out.
The video replay seemed to confirm this but the umpire didn't see it and Maria denied it. See for yourself below.

- That was a hideous display. Condescending Collins is no friend to tennis. She said she was retiring and should follow through. Sooner the better for the sport. BTW: As I read it in the WTA Rulebook 2025, it seems she broke at least two regulations in her post-match childish behavior. BTW: There are reasons she has no sponsors... and she displayed several of those reasons today.mandoist16-01-2025
