Aryna Sabalenka was penalised for hindrance during her Australian Open semi-final against Elina Svitolina after not making a typical sound, according to umpire Louise Azemar Engzell. The world No. 1 still won the game, but did not take kindly to the call and asked for a video review of the incident; however, the decision stayed the same.

Engzell said: "On the video, you go, 'ah ah-ya!'" Sabalenka still disagreed, countering by asking: "How many players do it different?" The umpire was not having any of it, though, and responded: "It's hindrance, it's a hindrance to me because you didn't make the normal sound."

Sabalenka still won the first set 6-2 despite going 15-0 down in the fourth game because of that hindrance call. She led 2-1 at the time and took game four despite being penalised, breaking Svitolina for the first time.
