I think the ump did it on purpose!

Okay I was not at home while the match was going on; I was watching the scoreboard and listening to Radio Wimbledon. I saw the difference in the two scores but I didn't think anything of it. Then I read about it and just got home and had a chance to watch the match.

Now I swear that the umpire did this on purpose. I am not one to believe in draw-rigging or whatever, but as soon as he announced 2-2 the cameras went to him and he had a smirk on his face. I think both Venus and Karoline realized the mistake when he called 3-2; the cameras went to him again, and I SWEAR he slightly smiled and nodded in Karolina's direction.

I am stunned by this!

I wonder what the "decision" would have been,had the situation been reversed?The ump definitely had a smirk on his face.I watched the matched,and was wondering about that too.Seems to me that he was looking down at Sprem,smiling.Oh well.Classy,conservative Venus!!!Thank God it wasn't Serena.All hell would have broke loose!!
