During a match against Grigor Dimitrov at the French Open, Hubert Hurkacz expressed dissatisfaction with the umpire’s decisions and, in a surprising move, asked Dimitrov if he wanted to change the umpire. This was the discussion.
Hurkacz: “G? You wanna make a change? Or you wanna continue with the lady here?”
Dimitrov: “Wanna continue with what?”
Hurkacz: “I mean if you wanna continue with the lady here or you’re fine or you wanna change. That’s what I’m saying, up to you.”
Dimitrov: “Honestly it’s whatever you wanna do”
