Electronic line-calling in Madrid wrong - Rybakina Image source, Getty Images Image caption, The umpire refused Rybakina's request to come down from her chair to look at the disputed mark By Mandeep Sanghera Sport journalist Published 13 minutes ago Elena Rybakina said she did not trust the electronic line-calling system at the Madrid Open following a disputed decision in her three-set win against Zheng Qinwen on Sunday. The Kazakh remonstrated with the umpire after Zheng was awarded an ace for a serve when the Chinese player was 30-0 up and 4-3 down in the second set. Rybakina, who went on to win 4-6 6-4 6-3, pointed to the mark and asked umpire Julie Kjendlie to come down to have a look at it on the clay court, but the official said she could not do so.

"The system is wrong, this is not a joke," Rybakina told the official, who said she had to go with the electronic line-calling system. "Well with this thing, I won't trust it at all, because there was no mark even close to what the TV showed. " Last year at the Madrid Open, men's player Alexander Zverev was warned for a taking a picture of a contested ball mark during another electric line-calling controversy at the tournament.

The German said there was a "malfunction in the system" after a ball was called in but which he argued had gone wide. Zverev ended up bringing his phone out of his bag and taking a picture of the mark before being given a warning for unsportsmanlike conduct. "It was, I think, similar to what Zverev had last year because it was in front of her nose.

You can't not see it. It was pretty frustrating," Rybakina added. "It's kind of a stolen point.

I understand it was her serve and she was serving really well, but it's really frustrating.
