The match between Carlos Alcaraz and Karen Khachanov in the quarterfinals of the ATP Doha 2026 is being played with maximum equality and tension. So much so that an incredible outburst from Carlos Alcaraz towards the chair umpire has occurred after receiving a controversial time warning following a long point. "How much time did you stop the clock? I am not allowed to go for the towel. What do I have to do next time? It's always the same, super unfair. The ATP rules are rubbish," said the world number one to the umpire, visibly upset.
