The French stormtrooper, who is famous for his outbursts on and off the court, makes no secret of the fact that he doesn’t enjoy tennis in pandemic times and that he only goes to tournaments to grab prize money for the opening rounds. He is said to be upset that fans can’t go to the matches, but the measures are being relaxed and the stands can be full at Wimbledon.

But apparently nothing had changed for Paire, and he decided to leave the end of the match against Schwartzman. He always fired the balls only into the net, thus angering the umpire referee, who gave him a reprimand for unsportsmanlike conduct, thus earning applause from the spectators present. And that was the last straw for the French.

He walked to the bench, declaring along the way that he needed a physiotherapist to feel pain. “I will not call a physiotherapist. You have to show more sporty behavior and try your best, “Judge Lahyani stood firm in his decision.

“You’re wasting all of our time!” A fan from the rostrum said. The Frenchman began arguing with the referee. “How many times have I played a balloon in the net in the first two sets? How many times? And you didn’t mind,” he scolded Lahyan. Fans began to roar and whistle at him.

However, this did not upset the 32-year-old tennis player. “I play tennis for myself, not for people. I’m not interested in them, “he said after the match. After this fuss, he returned to play the rest of the match and prepared something for the fans. With a shout and a huge pretense, he played a heavy ball, amusing everyone present.
