French Open: Umpire rescues pigeon during match
  + stars: | 2024-06-02 | by ( Aimee Lewis | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +1 min
CNN —With a bird’s eye view from his chair, umpire Damien Dumusois spotted a poorly pigeon on Court Suzanne-Lenglen and flew into action. Pictures show Dumusois picking up the bird with a towel during the third-round match, which Medvedev won under the roof on a rain-hit day to reach the last 16. “I hope the bird was okay, it was not looking good,” Medvedev told reporters afterwards. He was very gentle, I think important, and I hope the bird is fine and they take it to the vet clinic. I don’t know, we need to ask what happened after.”The pigeon was caught with the help of a towel.

Medvedev weathers Eubanks storm to reach semis
  + stars: | 2023-07-12 | by ( Martyn Herman | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
Medvedev clung on stubbornly, however, and as the fire in the Eubanks racket began to fade he took charge to reach the semi-finals at the grasscourt slam for the first time. Eubanks used his sledgehammer forehand to break the Medvedev serve to lead 3-1 in the second set -- beaming broadly and imploring the crowd for more noise. Medvedev looked bewildered and out of ideas as Eubanks kept swinging for the hills, landing blow after blow. Medvedev looked close to boiling point as he whacked a ball dangerously close to the fans, argued with umpire Damien Dumusois and received a warning. Eubanks cut a dejected figure in the deciding set as his dream faded away and the end came quickly.

[1/2] Tennis - French Open - Roland Garros, Paris, France - June 11, 2023 Serbia's Novak Djokovic speaks to the umpire during his final match against Norway's Casper Ruud REUTERS/Clodagh KilcoyneJune 11 (Reuters) - Novak Djokovic complained to the French Open final umpire that he was too quick to start the clock at changeovers in the first set on Sunday. The Serbian, chasing a record-breaking 23rd men's singles Grand Slam title at Roland Garros, expressed his frustration with Benoit Dumusois after losing a game that put his opponent Casper Ruud 6-5 up. "You start (the clock), I've not even come to the bench, why are you rushing?" "You can wait for us to sit down and call the score (and then start the clock). We're playing one hour and 10 minutes, it's a (possible) five setter in Grand Slam on clay."
