Fans were left booing a tennis star after he pretended to offer his smashed racquet to a child in the crowd. Corentin Moutet failed to win any new supporters in his first round clash at the Madrid Open which unexpectedly ended early. 4 Moutet instantly retired after being penalised for a racquet smash Credit: X / @TennisTV 4 The Frenchman reacted angrily after a tight line call went against him Credit: X / @TennisTV The Frenchman instantly retired after being penalised by the umpire as he was knocked out by compatriot Harold Mayot. Moutet had furiously smashed his racquet after a tight line call was awarded in favour of his opponent. Umpire Mohamed Lahyani responded by penalising him and handed a point to Mayot which secured him the game. The decision prompted Moutet to immediately retire from the match, citing a back injury. Before leaving the court, he bent his racquet in half and pretended to offer it to a youngster in the crowd. However, he was met with boos from the fans in attendance following his angry reaction. Moutet shook hands with both the umpire and Mayot as the boos continued. Meanwhile, the 6-3 4-2 Ret win for Mayot is the first ATP Masters 1000 victory of his career. Fans then refused to take Moutet's racquet as he offered it again whilst leaving the court. The 26-year-old has become known for his on court temper so far in his time on the ATP Tour. 4 Moutet destroyed his racquet before making his way off the court Credit: X / @TennisTV His previous outbursts include accusing umpires of 'getting drunk' every night at the Australian Open, which earned him a £12,000 fine. He headed into Wednesday's clash with Mayot ranked 82nd in the world. Moutet will likely face a sanction for his antics and potentially be fined by the ATP. Both Aryna Sabalenka and Daniil Medvedev were handed financial penalties for smashing their racquets at the Australian Open. Sabalenka's emotional actions during her final defeat to Madison Keys resulted in a $20,000 fine. It is unclear how much Moutet would be fined, with the rules on penalties at Grand Slams different to the rest of the ATP Tour. 4 The crowd booed after Moutet pretending to offer his racquet to a young fan Credit: X / @TennisTV Tennis star mocks 'cringe-worthy' celebration as rival competes on court next door Meanwhile, Mayot moves into the second round, where he faces Francisco Cerundolo.
