But then I go out there and I get a time violation// He said, Yeah, it was right on 30 seconds// I was right about to serve the ball// If he would have waited one second longer, I would have served// Of course anytime somebody gives you a violation, it`s going to have some kind of effect// It`s a direct influence on the match// The one at five all, 30 all// That was ridiculous, in my opinion// You know, maybe it`s their egos// I was very surprised// I think they just need to use their judgement// </span></div>
