Tennis umpire calls medical timeout for himself throughout Alexander Zverev closing

Meanwhile, Zverev turned the primary German to win the Hamburg Open in 30 years. He mentioned: “At the end of the day, this is my home, this is where I grew up, and this is where I started playing tennis. It was incredible for me, incredibly emotional. I can’t describe it in words, I’m just super happy right now.

“It’s almost like a first Tennis umpire calls medical timeout for himself during Alexander Zverev final again. It’s such a long time [since my previous title], 18 months, and I’m just super happy right now. I think he (Djere) was the much better player throughout the first set. I just kind of stuck with it and dug it out somehow. 

“Credit to him, he’s one of the most respected guys on tour, he’s doing all the right things. At the end, I’m just happy that it went the way it went.”
