Worst call at match point in history...1988 Wimbledon semis....
...Chris serving, ad-out, 5-6, hits a great shot, and walks back to serve...the crowd is loving it, and about five seconds later, Martina turns, looks at the spot, then glares at the line judge, who yells "Out." Chris says "WHat?", the crowd boos and boos Martina off the court, but the ump does not overrule this late, really shitty call.

If anyone had a right to swear just then, it was Chris.
