Moments of maximum tension were experienced at the 2024 ATP Winston-Salem when Alex Michelsen inadvertently hit a spectator in the audience while angrily throwing a ball. The American player himself was unsure for a couple of minutes whether the final against Lorenzo Sonego had ended at that moment, but the match was able to continue after the fan reassured the chair umpire that she was okay. Controversy arises among those who fail to comprehend why this did not lead to an immediate disqualification.

That was very close 😬#WSOpen pic.com/7eg6jDjG8K
