Denis Shapovalov lost his cool.

The 23-year-old loudly shouted “shut the f–k up” to the crowd watching his first round Italian Open match after they began to boo him. Fans were frustrated by Shapovalov’s ongoing tiffs with the chair umpire.

Shapovalov was fighting to remain in the second set of the match against Italian Lorenzo Sonego after winning the first on a tiebreak. The umpire had already warned the Canadian about crossing the net; Shapovalov lost it when he was dealt a point penalty at a critical moment, causing him to lash out.
