Dmitry Tursunov complained to chair umpire Cedric Mourier during his loss to Grigor Dimitrov in Rotterdam about a slow play warning referencing Rafael Nadal. During a change-over Tursunov asked Mourier “How much am I over? As much as Rafa or less? I think Rafa is eight seconds over and nobody ever gives him a warning.”
Then Tursunov continued by asking the chair empire how often he gave a slow play warning to Nadal – “Ten times, 12 times, once? Rafa will pick his ass for 30 seconds and you guys will watch it. You’re not going to say a word.”
