American tennis player Danielle Collins had some choice words for the camera during her Strasbourg Internationaux match against Emma Raducanu on Wednesday afternoon.
Collins was in the middle of a change when he felt that the cameraman who moves was too close to comfort in the middle of the third and defining set. She left the bench and left the point clear.

“I need to get water. We are in a change. You don’t need to be so close to me, and you don’t need to be at Emma’s top. It is very inappropriate,” Collins said. “It’s not so difficult to give space.”
The camera remained in Collins while filing its bottle of water with Raducanu in the shot to the right.
Collins ended up winning the 4-6, 6-1, 6-3, and is ready to face Anna Kalinskaya in the quarterfinals of the tournament.

Raducanu intervened in what he heard from Collins during his outburst.
“I was standing because I didn’t want to sit on the third set due to my back,” said Raducanu, through the tennis gazette. “I was standing because I was a bit more comfortable, and then he came to fill his bottle and only said how the cameraman was very close and felt a bit inappropriate, but that’s all he was saying.”
