Reversions

"ball disputes happens very often in tennis matches, we dont cover them up, its nothing special" writes the editor deleting content. Ball disputes happen all the time, yes; a player choosing to rub out their opponent's mark on clay, though, is unusual. Whether you think that is worthy of comment is one thing, misrepresenting what was being reported is another. Poor show. 5.198.35.69 (talk) 10:05, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

This was an outrageous act the player committed, and it has more behind it than a ball dispute. The player poses as a disgrace to their nation and its tennis scene. I suggest to make a Controversy section, and record the issue 2001:4C4D:1D0D:4135:38C6:D4B:1D7:BDF8 (talk) 11:14, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

that is why I undid that guy's deletion. HTsien (talk) 11:57, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

see the full vid here, it may be less "outrageous" if you consider that another point was played before she even erased it. https://twitter.com/i/status/1681678785874149377 Krkpsv (talk) 17:52, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

Watch the video again, she is clearly trying to rile up her opponent Galaxywfwong (talk) 03:14, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

1. At least you assume that. Someone else does not. And even if you are right, mental struggles became a part of contemporary competitive sports.

2. If an incident like this is such an "outrage", then how comes that the Jimmy Connors (more disputable, and much more famous) incident is not mentioned at all in the player's Wikipedia page?

3. Game rules say the following: "If a player erases the ball mark before the chair umpire has made a final decision, he/she concedes the call." http://itf.uberflip.com/i/237813-rules-of-tennis-2014-english/31 However, a final decision was reached (which Zhang accepted, when she kept on playing), and the game went on, so that mark had no significance any more. Thus, it was not at all against the rules. It can be called unsportsmanlike, still, many do debate this call.

Finally, as sort of a follow-up, an official inquiry is mentioned: https://www.tennis.com/news/articles/hungarian-grand-prix-under-review-wta-racist-budapest-zhang-toth-facebook You may want to wait for that before a final update. Krkpsv (talk) 14:05, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 19 July 2023

I would like to request several additions to the “Controversy” section of the page.

That:

Victoria Azarenka’s comments that the conduct of Toth in the game between Toth and Shuia was “an another level of unsportsmanlike conduct”.

Final paragraph in “controversy” section

No source provided for Toth being forced to apologize and not meaning it. Delete that part? 2600:1700:D10:D2A0:1DB:292F:DF34:3021 (talk) 19:19, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
