This is how Carlos Ramos explained his decision not to disqualify Bergs after his aggression towards Garín

The tennis world is in an uproar following the incident between Zizou Bergs and Cristian Garín at the 2025 Davis Cup, with a vast majority favoring the belief that the Belgian should have been disqualified. That's why it's so interesting to hear the arguments of Carlos Ramos, the chair umpire who made the decision not to impose any punishment on Bergs, leading to Chile's definitive elimination. "I consider it an unfortunate accident, I did not see any intention for that aggression to occur, and nothing happened during the match that led me to think it was intentional," he stated.
