Sam Querrey pris au dépourvu à l'antenne par le forfait de Kostyuk

L'ancien joueur de tennis Sam Querrey a vécu un moment gênant en direct sur Tennis Channel alors qu'il prédisait un beau parcours à Marta Kostyuk lors de l'Open d'Italie. Sa co-animatrice Tracy Austin l'a rapidement corrigé en lui annonçant que la joueuse avait déjà déclaré forfait.

L'incident s'est produit le 6 mai lors d'une discussion sur les potentielles vainqueurs du tournoi féminin à Rome. Querrey a affirmé avec assurance que Kostyuk pourrait atteindre les quarts de finale si elle restait dans le tableau une semaine plus tard. Austin l'a interrompu pour signaler que Kostyuk s'était retirée la veille en raison de problèmes physiques suite à un calendrier de matchs chargé.
