Laura Siegemund marched to the umpire’s chair and complained after she was told to hit her first serve again during a tight clash with Aussie qualifier Maddison Inglis. The German ace is known for running down the shot clock on both serve and return, and often has a lengthy routine before she serves. Siegemund was given a time violation at 5-5 in the second set.
Then, in the same game, she fired down a serve while Inglis was not ready to receive, and had her arms up. Australian Open chair umpire Alison Hughes immediately announced another first serve, and Siegemund was unimpressed.
