Wimbledon lived one of the most controversial moments of this edition in the Sinner-Dimitrov. With 2-0 in favor of the Bulgarian, just before starting the third set, the organization decided to close the ceiling and the game was more than 10 minutes stopped. This has generated a great debate in the tournament. A legend of tennis as Andy Murray He criticized the decision to cover the track and have to stop the duel for so long.
Dimitrov won by two sets to zero to Sinner. The world number one was against the strings and at the end of the second set, the referees of the central track of the All England Club decided to close the roof, although there was still natural light to continue playing. Murray, Champion in Wimbledon 2013 and 2016, cried against those who made this decision because it considers that “you can still play more than one tennis set.”
«How ridiculous close the roof at this point in the game. There is at least an hour of light …You can still play more than one tennis set! It is an outdoor tournament! ”He wrote one of the best British tennis players in history. Murray is a voice more than authorized to talk about this topic, he knows as nobody the clues of the All England Club. Here he has won three occasions, two Wimbledon and an Olympic gold in London 2012 representing Great Britain.

That caused the two tennis players to go cold and, on the way back, with 2-2 in the third set and serve, Dimitrov He was injured. The Bulgarian suffered a pain in the pectoral that prevented him from continuing to play despite having a result in favor. Again, an injury has prevented him from continuing in Wimbledon.
