Stefanos Tsitsipas was handed a warning for coaching after the Greek youngster appeared to receive some instructions from his box late in his quarter-final clash with Rafael Nadal.<\/p>\n

Having fought back from two sets down, Tsitsipas managed to force a fourth set out of the Spaniard to keep the match alive.<\/p>\n

Locked up in the fourth, Tsitsipas was pulled up by chair umpire Damien Dumusois for what he assumed was a time violation, before he released a warning for coaching.<\/p>\n

The moment held some significance considering Patrick Mouratoglou, the coach who was embroiled in Serena's infamous US Open meltdown<\/a>, is also a member of Tsitsipas' team.<\/p>\n

"The most famous coaching violation in the world was Serena Williams with Patrick Mouratoglou against Naomi Osaka at the US Open final a couple of years back\u2026 just a reminder," tennis great Jim Courier said. <\/p>\n

Todd Woodbridge added: "He (Tsitsipas) was told they were warned a little while ago.<\/p>\n

"They were told and the umpire has followed."<\/p>\n

Courier did make mention there is no clear way of knowing whether Mouratoglou or Tsitsipas' father, Apostolos, was the one who was spotted coaching. <\/p>\n

"There's no way to know if it was Patrick or his dad (Apostolos), they're both coaches," Courier added.<\/p>\n

"It's also worth pointing out that a player gets penalised for something they are not necessarily doing in that environment.<\/p>\n

"That's how it works. If a coach says something they shouldn't say, it's the player who gets the penalty."<\/p>\n
