Feel like any pro would confirm that this was a completely valid shot selection from Mannarino, given the circumstances. He apologized immediately, too. Yet Shapovalov made sure everyone knew he wasn’t happy with it… 🫠🫠🫠

Getting mad at a grandpa feels so wrong LMAOO

Why is tennis so soft? They apologize for winning a point if the ball hits the net. They cry when a ball is hit towards them. Like what are we doing here.

If you don't like it, get the fak away from the net.

Then just now Shapo hit it as hard as he could straight at Manno, who just laughed it off

Definitely a more legitimate shot than, say, smashing an umpire full force in the eye. Shut up and fuck off Denis you knob.

What was the alternative - lose the game?

the level of narcissist you have to be to actually be mad at mannarino in the situation is wild......that was the easiest and clearest way for him to get the point, this is professional tennis & he's down a set this isn't the fucking country club. Shap is a next level BUM

Tennis players are major pussies

I’m almost always on your side. But I’m torn on this one. Mannarino had so much open court, as Shapovalov said. Tennis needs more heated moments like this. It’s entertaining. Was hilarious and awesome watching Shapovalov get revenge.

salty ass nigga

Winning ugly can be an important part of the game. Mannarino employed it by blasting the ball at Shapo, who wasn’t going to let that intimidate him. Note that Mannarino never won another game after this play. It may have been fake bluster by Denis, but it worked.

What a wankster. Victimhood is in his DNA.

If you come to the net, expect the ball to be hit at you. It is a completely valid, and smart, shot to hit body, as evidenced by the fact that Mannarino won the point. As long as a shot is legal, no one should complain. The point is to win.

Pathetic stuff from Shapovalov

Used it as fuel to win set 2. Smart on his part.

Shapo is such a baby. Imagine getting upset that your opponent hit the ball at you rather than into the open court. He actually gave you a better chance to get it back!

Shapo being an absolute bum? What’s new Guy does not rep the leaf well

Shapo is a sensitive prick

Shapo can be such a whiny dick sometimes 🙄

Shapo is a cunt haha always has been, in other news, water is wet 👍

No. It is not. Mannarino wanted to get underneath Denis skin and instead got his butt kicked on the court. Like, he awakened a sleeping wolf 🐺 and got torn to pieces. If you step on that court don't claim old man privileges. Don't start things you cannot finish.

Denis's career is coming apart. Totally legal play. Grow up

Shapovalov is being a bit of a sook and needs to grow a sack

Shapo continues to be a piece of shit

Shapovalov is such a little b

He shot at him two games later & Mannarino laughed it off

Shapo being soft here which is a reason he never reached his full potential. The proper response would have been to return the favor to Mannarino when he got a chance to pelt him back.

Shapovalov has always been a whiny little bitch. This is nothing new

Shit talking an old man what a scrub 🤣

Shapo acting like a little bitch

Dennis nunca ha sido el más listo de su clase, recuerdo aquel partido contra Nadal lesionado en roma celebrando los puntos, un auténtico imbecil

I disagree, he could have gone anywhere

And Mannarino didn’t win another game. Changed the whole second set.

Shapo is a dick.

In the heat of the moment it's easy to get angry and offended however you then need to quickly realise this is pro tennis and the shot Mannarino played was legit. If you don't like getting hit at then don't come to the net.
