It is funny that as Eldrick has mentioned, Leylah is getting flak for asking to replay the point due to the lights flickering which is perfectly reasonable and I will note that several tennis players and pundits have chimed in to say that the point should have been replayed. Also, there's nothing stopping Serrano to agreeing with Leylah and saying that the point should be replayed, obviously she won the point so there's very little incentive for her to do that. If you read enough tweets (which I don't recommend), it's almost as if Leylah planned for the lights to flicker at that very moment in the match.
Tennis fans are just weird, if the player they're rooting for doesn't win, there's obviously some massive conspiracy at play that's preventing them from winning.
