Frenchman Benoit Paire left fans and commentators alike scratching their heads following an uninspired outing against Cameron Norrie at the U.S. Open.
Paire, 33, was swiftly ousted from the running at Flushing Meadows following a 0-6, 6-7(1), 0-6 defeat to Norrie on Court 11. There's no shame in losing to the ninth ranked men's player in the world, but BBC Radio 5 Live's Naomi Broady was among those to question his efforts after he started packing away his things at 5-0 down in the third set.
"Benoit's just packing his stuff up," she said as the events unfolded. "He has put all his racquets in his bag and handed his sweaty shirt to someone in the crowd. That would not be a shirt I would want to receive. Does he realise he has another game to go?"
