We thought that VAR, video replay system for certain plays, would come to tennis to solve injustices, but that has not been the case in the match between Anna Kalinskaya and Beatriz Haddad Maia at the US Open 2024. With the score at 40-40, the Russian asks for a review of a ball whose bounce they had not seen well live. The chair umpire proceeds to do so, and still does not see the ball hit the ground after hitting the Brazilian's racket. Instead of a break point in favor of Anna, that game fell on Beatriz's side.
