The Line Judges are the utmost appellate authority on a tennis court. However, they are also humans and susceptible to errors. That’s precisely why players have the power to challenge the call.

For the first time ever, Greek star Stefanos Tsitsipas will play in Hamburg. After a disappointing loss at the Italian Open, he will definitely want to do better at this event. He will play his first match tomorrow against Daniel Evans.
In addition to Tsitsipas, another NextGen player has also decided to play Hamburg – Daniil Medvedev. He recently reached the semi-finals of the US Open and he is looking to continue his good form. His match against Ugo Humbert tomorrow will certainly give us a better idea.
