Australian tennis star Jordan Thompson has had the last laugh after confronting hecklers in the front row of his first match at the Cincinnati Open. The world No.32 lost the first set against 13th seed Ugo Humbert but when he began mounting a comeback in the second, he was up against more than his opponent. The drama unfolded on the court and social media as a tennis fan sitting nearby provided running updates on the two men.
” By this point Thompson had the support of the crowd and rode the wave towards a stunning 3-6 6-3 7-6 victory over Humbert. “White shirt gambler made a quick and quiet exit,” the fan wrote. “Fans discussed how happy they were that he lost hundreds of dollars.” Thompson also received the backing of Canadian tennis star Denis Shapovalov afterwards. “So ATP Tour, how long are we going to keep allowing these things to go on?” Shapovalov wrote.
