However, Munar and  Kokkinakis caught the attention of many in the tennis community after they were involved in a contentious incident on the court.

With some of his remarkable performances, the Spanish tennis player prevailed in the highly anticipated match against Thanasi Kokkinakis. The entire tennis community was thrilled to see Jaume Munar making a remarkable comeback to clinch the first-round victory, 7-6(7), 7-6(3).

In addition to the stellar display of their prowess, the fans also saw another handshake drama between two tennis players at the net. During the first set tiebreaker, the 27-year-old player complained to the chair umpire Mohamed Lahyani about the constant exchange of dialogues between the Spaniard and his coach.

Surprisingly, Munar also had similar complaints about his opponent, constantly talking in between the match and he thus interjected to express his frustration.

The Aussie found it very much ironic as he fired back at him by saying, “Bro, you don’t shut up.”

Even after their match, the ATP stars got into another furious confrontation that was brought up as a result of their earlier disagreement. Kokkinakis’ “shut up” remarks were met with a blunt response from his opponent who outperformed him in straight sets.

After winning the match, Munar said, “Don’t tell me to shut up again,” when the Aussie tried to approach him for the customary post-match handshake. The 27-year-old player then replied in an intimidating manner as he stated,  “Or what?”

Later, Kokkinakis cleared the air by revealing that he wasn’t furious with the Spaniard as he was just talking to the chair umpire. Munar, on the other hand, also argued by saying that he wasn’t conversing with his team. But, his opponent didn’t agree with the same as he insisted that he saw him talking with his coach.
