Jared Donaldson Fined 5,000 Euros for Monte-Carlo Outburst


Jared Donaldson has been fined 5,000 Euros for his outburst at the Monte-Carlo Rolex Masters on Monday. The American got into a heated argument with umpire Arnaud Gabas over a call and aggressively argued his case while getting in the face of the umpire.

Most who saw it live or watched the replay (see it above) agreed that he stepped over the line with his behavior, whether he was completely right about the call or not. He was right, and the serve by Albert Ramos-Vinolas was well long according to Hawk-Eye.

Many saw the call as yet more proof that tennis should turn to Hawk-Eye to officiate calls on clay, rather than having umpires step out of the chair and peruse the ball mark. It’s a worthwhile argument to have, but we ask you this dear tennis fans: If tennis fixed all the things that made fans and players angry, what would we have to be angry about?

€5,000 Euros the current exchange rate is approximately $6,200. Donaldson made € 17,350 for his first-round loss.
