Was watching the Monfils vs Becker match at the Qatar open. Monfils collapses on the ground and every mother and his son lays him. I rewound the sky+ put it in slow motion and you can see all he did was whack himself on the knee as he tried to play the shot. Quickly backed him at what ever price I could get and laid it off a few minutes later. Massive over reaction.

I've seen Monfils make a meal of an injury before and this was another. He looked like he had been shot!

BTW the time delay between BF livevideo and SKY is about 3.5 seconds.

The odds appear to be changing when you see the point, so somebody in Qatar has a good seven seconds over others.

Yeah, it appears the ATP are putting pressure on tournaments to spot and eject anyone with devices, but that's clearly not happening here
