It happened in Melbourne during the last round of the qualifiers for the first Slam of the season, starting on Sunday 18 January, in the match between the Austrian Sebastian Ofner e lo utilisante Nishesh Basavareddy. At the decisive super tie break, after having won one set each, Ofner scores the point of 7-1 and rejoices as he approaches the net to shake hands with his opponent, convinced that he has won the match.

It’s a shame, however, that the super tie break involves reaching 10 points, and not the canonical 7, which is why theThe referee looked at the Austrian, a little stunned, and told him: “Not yet“. Ofner then returned to the net, spreading his arms in surprise and a little disappointed, and was immediately met by Basavareddy’s comeback.

The young American in fact reached the Australian at 8-8, with the match continuing to lead. Ofner won two real match points, Basavareddy canceled them all with his serve and placed the decisive mini break, closing this incredible match 13-11 and flying into the main draw of the Australian Open.
