Follow usChina’s Zhang Shuai retired with tears in her eyes from her Hungarian Grand Prix match after her local opponent Amarissa Toth erased a ball mark on the clay court following a disputed line call.
Second seed Zhang hit a forehand that appeared to land on the line but was called out by the line judge. The umpire then stepped down to take a look at the mark and confirmed the ball had landed outside the line. Zhang was incensed by the call and asked to speak with the tournament supervisor.
The match continued for one more point but the disagreement over the disputed call continued, before Toth decided to erase the mark with her shoe.

“Wait, wait, wait! Keep the mark,” Zhang yelled. “What are you doing? Why would you do that?”
Zhang looked visibly distressed during the changeover and a physio was called to check on her before the world number 28 opted to retire while trailing 6-5 in the opening set of their round of 32 match in Budapest.
