@dailymailau: French tennis star Terence Atmane was embroiled in a furious spat with US Open medical staff after he was refused treatment under the sport's strict rules around cramps. Players are unable to take medical timeouts during matches if they suffer cramps and can only seek treatment briefly during changeovers or set breaks. But Atmane was keen to stress that he was suffering from muscular pain separate from cramping - despite having struggled with the issue earlier in his five-set battle against Jaume Munar. Calling for the physio deep in the fifth set, Atmane became incensed that he was being misunderstood by the responding physiotherapist as they questioned why he needed a medical timeout. #tennis #USOpen #injury #tennisplayer #sport

A medical officer can tell if it’s a muscle cramp by feeling the muscle physically cramping. He was trying to get around the ruling

He is right to ask his credentials if he doesn't understand what pain is

I don’t see it as a meltdown. Women get ignored like this all the time by doctors (especially Black women), so it’s triggering for me to watch.

Daily Mail, I'm still trying to see the part where he "melts down" 🙄 The guy was cool, calm, and collected. He didn't even raise his voice.

I feel his frustration it's like when you go to a doctor and tell them your in pain and they are adamant that your not is pain amd it's something else like can people just listen to there patients for ONCE

He saw him walk and based on his experience he can assess the difference between a cramp and an actual injury limp. The player just wanted an excuse to delay the game and rest (which is not allowed).

tennis players often fake injuries to get rest (similar to soccer players when their team is up) - med guy wasnt having it

What people don’t realize is that rules don’t allow medical timeout for cramping. That’s why the player says it’s pain and not cramping because he is buying time. He also told medical to “stop acting stupid!”

Melts down? Where’s the melt down? He was incredible calm and wanted an answer why the medic wouldn’t do his job. Daily mail scrambling to make drama with their bs headlines as usual
