Ruud receives a warning for not going to the bathroom

It seems somewhat surreal, but this situation has been experienced in the meeting between Casper Ruud and Roberto Bautista in the ATP Montreal 2022. Fergus Murphy, chair umpire of the match, gave the Norwegian tennis player a warning for using his break to go to the bathroom only to change clothes. Ruud, who did not fully believe what was happening to him, understood that he could use that time for what he did. The referee explained to him that, according to the rule, he can change his clothes, but he must enter the service even for a second. Casper angrily asked if the prank would cost him about $3,000, although Fergus didn’t know what he would have to pay for the unsportsmanlike conduct notice.
