Frustration can be costly. Ask Alexander Bublik who gave in to annoyance during a first-round match against unseeded Gregoire Barrere in Montpellier, France.
In the end, Bublik lost the match and three rackets which he destroyed during a spell of frustration.
His title defense came to an early end as Barrere advanced to the second round with a 6-4 6-7 (12) 7-6 (3) victory, with Bublik’s 14 double faults proving costly, CNN reported.
“The good news is he’s got plenty of other racquets,” said the commentary team on the call. Well, maybe not. Bublik proceeded to grab a second stick and gave hit four hard whacks, The Telegraph reports.
He repeated the action with a third piece of equipment, before finally changing ends to the announcement of a warning for racquet abuse, the report added.
