NSFW!

Gabas asked him what was wrong with him on this day.

That was enough to get him going.

“What’s happening today? An HOUR AND A HALF yesterday, the chair of the ATP ####ing screaming at me in a player meeting, for trying to unite the players,” Pospisil said.

“For an hour and a half.”

“The LEADER of the ATP.”

“Get him out here. … #### … ####ing #######.”

Gabas had had enough, and suggested that if Pospisil had something to say to Gaudenzi, he should say it outside the court.

That didn’t go well.

Pospisil continued on.

“Why am I supporting this ####ing …..” (Tour, he likely said, although it was inaudible).

“You want to default me, I’ll gladly sue this WHOLE ORGANIZATION,” Pospisil added, mentioning something about “one of the biggest law firms in the …”

As upset as Pospisil clearly was, it wasn’t as though there was nothing to his story.

According to a reliable source, we’re told that in front of a large group of players who showed up for the players’ meeting, Gaudenzi and company really went after him.

They called him things like “ignorant”, “uneducated” – lovely stuff like that.

We’re told that he was in tears. And that even just before he took the court today to play his match, he was still shaken up.

No doubt more to come
Mumbling about a lack of focus, Pospisil is still in the match against McDonald, although he has mumbled about a lack of focus.

No kidding.

In fact, he won the second set before fading late in the third.

What we heard late last night was that there was a player vote – or at least a strong discussion – about not playing the Miami Open at all.

It’s now clear that, in the absence of Novak Djokovic, Pospisil was leading this discussion.

It must have been a pretty steamy room.
