Tennis LIVE as Emma Raducanu makes announcement and huge row explodes

Alexander Bublik’s win over Corentin Moutet came as many expected, with a bang.

Bublik hit out at his opponent for speaking “too much” and when asked for his thoughts on Moutet’s previous comments, replied: “Well, he said that he will do everything to send me home, so it’s nice that he lives in Paris and it’s not too far with a taxi, you know?”

Moutet then replied in his press conference: “Today I tried to focus on myself. I don’t think it was personal.

“He likes to make fun of players. I don’t know what you expect from me. Some people talk, some people don’t. I guess he’s part of the first category. He loves to verbally clash with people.”
