That in 2019 nothing that happens in public, goes unnoticed, should now be known. Recently, the Italian referee Ginaluca Moscarella was seen after a sexist remark against a ball girl in an ATP Challenger tournament from the traffic. At the WTA tournament in Luxembourg, the coach of Misaki Doi, the Austrian Christian Zahalka, made an outrageous sexist dropout.
The Japanese made her coach come to the court at the score of 5: 4. Zahalka, who apparently did not know that the on-court coaching is captured by the TV cameras and microphones, tried to motivate his player with the following words: "I know, it's like playing big boobs against Karlovic . "And continued that Görges would not continue to open up to this point.
Doi actually got the first set after this speech, but lost the match in three rounds. Julia Görges, who has probably only learned of the scene at the coaching bench after the end of the match, is in the quarter-finals after the next three-set win against Sorana Cirstea, where she meets the 2016 Olympic champion Monica Puig.
