Stefanos Tsitsipas took issue with two-time Grand Slam champion Carlos Alcaraz’s style of play during their quarterfinal match at the French Open on Tuesday, prompting him to make his case to the chair umpire. 

Tsitsipas, a finalist at the 2021 French Open, approached the umpire after losing a tie-break in the second set to complain about Alcaraz’s "extended grunt."

"When I'm about to hit the shot, there is an extended grunt," he said, according to a video, via Eurosport. 

"The grunt is extended. It's like a millisecond before I hit it."

Tsitsipas' complaints were met with boos from the crowd, but it wouldn’t be the last time he raised the issue.
