Video: “What’s he doing in there?” Andy Murray Fumes At Stefano Tsitsipas’ Prolonged Toilet Break During Showdown At The Us Open 2021

Andy Murray went onto label Stefano Tsitsipas a cheat and said he had lost all respect for the world number 3 after his deliberate toilet break at the US Open 2021

Although he was eventually defeated by Stefano Tsitsipas, Andy Murray dished out one of his finest performances in a long time.

The five set thriller was reminiscent of the Andy Murray who was tearing up the court prior to his career being plagued by injuries. The Brit was a force to be reckoned with during the first round men’s singles match to see us be regaled in a humdinger of a matchup.

Andy Murray Rips Into Stefano Tsitsipas Over His Lengthy Toilet Break

With Murray battering him persistently in the match, the 23 year old Greek had decided to resort to taking tactical breaks to break Murray’s momentum. It was a clear bid by Tsitsipas to not only earn much needed reprieve as he was left knackered but also to break Murray’s rhythm.

During the matchup, Tsitsipas took a massive toilet break at the end of the second set, a medical time-out at the end of the third set, and an eight-minute comfort break at the end of the fourth set. And Murray was far from pleased with Tsitsipas with him heard bellowing to the stands how he failed to understand what the Greek was doing in the toilet for so long.
Murray who was eventually defeated 2-6 7-6 3-6 6-3 6-4 also went onto make his feelings towards Stefano clear at the post-match press conference. Livid at the shenanigans his nemesis had indulged in on the day, Murray went onto talk about how it was blatant cheating and him losing all respect for Stefano.
“It’s not so much leaving the court, it’s the amount of time,” Murray said.
“Right now sitting here I feel like it’s nonsense and they need to make a change because it’s not good for the sport, it’s not good for TV, it’s not good for the fans,” he continued.
