\n When nature calls, sometimes you just have to answer.\n <\/p>\n

\n During his third-round match at the French Open<\/a>, Australian tennis player Thanasi Kokkinakis<\/a> was left dumbfounded after seemingly being refused a toilet break by the umpire.\n <\/p>\n

\n After losing the second set, Kokkinakis \u2013 who had taken a toilet break after the first set \u2013 approached chair umpire Katarzyna Radwan-Cho.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cAll I\u2019m asking is to try and p*ss,\u201d he told her. \u201cNow you\u2019re telling me I\u2019ve got 50 seconds. Can you just be realistic and give me something decent for once.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cF**king sh*t, we get two for a match,\u201d he added, referencing the number of toilet breaks permitted in five setters. \u201cDo you want me to p*ss on the court?\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cIs that what you want?\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n Kokkinakis eventually lost in four sets to Russia\u2019s Karen Khachanov, who overturned a 4-1 deficit in the fourth-set tiebreak to close out the match and advance to the fourth round.\n <\/p>\n

\n British former player Laura Robson, now working as a pundit for Eurosport, explained why Kokkinakis might have had trouble making it to the bathroom and back on time.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cYou have to sprint, but the problem is on [court] Simonne-Mathieu the bathrooms just aren\u2019t quite as close as they are on Chatrier and Lenglen.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cYou can see his frustration because he\u2019s trying to get there as fast as possible, but it\u2019s just physically not going to happen \u2026 but at least it didn\u2019t happen on court.\u201d\u200b\n <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
