"Shut up, you jackass!" The famous Russian tennis champion flew off the handle at a tournament in Wuhan. Video

Russia's ninth seed Veronika Kudermetova (WTA No. 63) got into a wild stunt in the second round of the WTA 1000 tournament in Wuhan, China. During her match against Beatrice Haddad-Maye, the 27-year-old native of Kazan snapped at her husband and coach Sergey Demyokhin.

The winner of the WTA Finals doubles tournament (2022) did not have a good match with the Brazilian player. After losing the first set in straight sets, Kudermetova tried to cling to the second game, but began to make mistakes.

At this point, Demykhin tried to make changes to his lover's game, but heard "Shut up, you jackass!" in response.

As a result, the match ended in defeat: 1:6, 4:6. Haddad-Maya will now compete with Magdalena Franch from Poland to reach the quarterfinals.

Sergiy is 13 years older than Veronika. They met when she was 15 and still playing junior tournaments. In 2017, the couple got married.

As OBOZ.UA reported earlier, Russia's second ranked player Andrey Rublev was losing his temper after his sensational exit from the English Open tennis championships. The 26-year-old Muscovite made a very inaccurate shot in the third game with a score of 1-3, after which he furiously began to beat himself on the knee with a racket, shouting something at the stands.
