- During a game, 21-year-old Arthur Cazaux suddenly collapsed.
- The Frenchman then had to be transported away in a wheelchair.
There was a shocking moment in qualifying for the ATP 1000 tournament in Miami. In the second round of qualifying there was a duel between the two Frenchmen Arthur Cazaux and Harold Mayot. After both players won a set each, it became too much for Cazaux in the third round. The 21-year-old waits for his opponent to serve and then collapses out of nowhere.
The referee and paramedics rushed to the scene within a short time. As a result, Cazaux has to be transported away in a wheelchair. It is still unclear why the 21-year-old collapsed. One reason could be the temperatures in Florida. During the collapse, the temperature in Miami was over 30 degrees and the humidity was around 70 percent. There is currently no information about Cazaux’s health.
Criticism of the opponent
While Cazaux received immediate help from the referee and paramedics after his collapse, his opponent Harold Mayot initially showed no reaction, which earned him a lot of criticism. Mayot explained after the game: “I didn’t see him fall and I thought he was lying down because he had a cramp. When I realized it was serious, I immediately went to him and was very worried.”
