Still, as Sky analyst Barry Cowan points out: “Rules are rules and this isn’t a grey area. We often see Nadal getting a first warning, and it’s usually on a big point – when he’s serving for the set perhaps – as if the umpires want so say, 'Hey, we’re getting tough here’. But then they don’t take the next step. Whereas when Marcel Granollers cramped up in a match in Madrid the other day and couldn’t get into position, bang: point gone. We heard Dimitry Tursunov say it during a match last year: it’s one rule for Rafa and one for everyone else.”
