Greek tennis star Stefanos Tsitsipas is not technically breaking any rules by taking toilet breaks that last several minutes during matches, but his repeated lengthy trips to the bathroom are getting fans and other players offside.
Andy Murray lost respect for him but that did not stop Stefanos Tsitsipas from taking another lengthy bathroom break during his latest match at the US Open.World number three Stefanos Tsitsipas has taken long mid-match bathroom breaks in successive matches at the US OpenAn opponent accused the Greek star of communicating with his coach and father during the Cincinnati Masters
Mannarino said the tennis governing bodies had to change their system, which currently allows players to take one break in best-of-three matches and two breaks in best-of-five matches, but does not specify how long the breaks have to be. Serena Williams's long-time coach, Patrick Mouratoglou, has been in the Tsitsipas camp at Flushing Meadows and said the Greek star was not trying to get an advantage over his opponents.
Tsitsipas returned serve by pointing out the Scot had visited the bathroom when it was two sets all during his victory over Novak Djokovic in the 2012 US Open final.
