Whenever there is controversy in a tennis match, Jelena Ostapenko is often involved. And so it was at Wimbledon 2026, where the Latvian is playing mixed doubles with Marcelo Arévalo. Everything unfolded during their quarterfinal match against Laura Siegemund and Roger Vasselin. Ostapenko and the Salvadoran won the first set 6-4, and it all erupted in a tiebreak at 7-7. 

The tense scene between Jelena Ostapenko and Laura Siegemund at Wimbledon 2026

While Siegemund was serving, she exceeded the time allowed and received a second warning, forcing her to serve a double fault on the second serve, which angered the German. She complained to the umpire, pointing at Ostapenko, saying, "She bounces the ball 18 times!" They lost the next point, and Siegemund refused to shake hands with the Latvian at the net.

Vasselin and the German continued to argue with the chair umpire, and Ostapenko, who thrives in these situations, told Siegemund, "You have to handle defeats better, learn to lose." At that moment, Siegemund decided to leave the court, but Ostapenko's conversation with the Frenchman continued. He argued they couldn't give her a warning at such a crucial point in the match, and she insisted she does it in every match, saying, "Everyone knows it." The Frenchman pointed out that she also takes her time to serve, and although Ostapenko agreed, she added with a smile, "I'm practically always on time."
