Wimbledon has not been short on drama this year and a men's doubles team has caused more controversy. The pair of Joe Salisbury and Rajeev Ram briefly refused to play their doubles semi-final due to a hawkeye call.
During the second set of their quarter-final clash with French pair Nicolas Mahut and Édouard Roger-Vasselin, the duo believed they had broken serve at 5-5, only for the 12th seeds to make a speculative challenge given the significance of the point. They would be successful as Hawkeye deemed the ball to have caught the baseline, to the shock of the top seeds who were left fuming.
"No way, man!" exclaimed Ram as he protested the shock decision along with Salisbury. "That is absolutely ridiculous. There is no way, no way at all! We're turning the machine off. We're not in the future here, man." Salisbury added: "There is no chance that is in. You know it is wrong! Can you get the supervisor?"
