“Korrenen Mota got a threat of death from Paul Kotov right during a match”, – WRITE: Sport.ua
According to media reports, the French tennis player was threatened with a “neutral” player directly during the match.
Mota told about it in a message published on the social network X (former Twitter), which was later removed. According to him, Kotov said, “The next time you come to the net, I will kill you.” The following phrase: “One day someone will kill you.”
Mota expressed indignation with the absence of any reaction to these words: “There was not even a warning. It seems that now such words are allowed on the court. How do you want me not to respond if you do not do your job? ” – he wrote, criticizing the inaction of the judge on the tower and ATP.
