Tennis never ceases to surprise us, and an image that hadn't occurred for years has made a comeback, this time with the number one in the WTA world as the protagonist. Aryna Sabalenka was not satisfied with the chair umpire refusing to go down to check a ball she believed was in, so she had no choice but to grab her phone and take a picture of the mark. After the match at WTA Stuttgart 2025, Sabalenka mentioned that the umpire "didn't like what I did. He gave me a nasty look at the end of the game and was very strong when shaking my hand". An image of Sabalenka that will go down in history.
