This was the surreal 'challenge' that Davidovich asked for: neither Vacherot nor the chair umpire could hold back the laughter

Alejandro Davidovich always surprises us with one of his own. The Malagueño was playing his quarterfinal match at the ATP Adelaida 2026 against Valentin Vacherot when he requested a challenge on a ball that, in his opinion, was very dubious. However, Hawk-Eye showed that the ball had not only gone out but had gone out by quite a distance, which caused laughter from the stands, as well as from the Spanish player, the Monegasque, and even the chair umpire.
