3. Amazing contrast in the BBC radio and TV commentators

I started listening to the radio, and they were a bit critical of Kyrgios until Tsitsipas hit the ball at the spectator. They then sided with Kyrgios, with at least one agreeing Tsitsipas should have lost by default, like Djokovic once did - he just got a warning. Then Tsitsipas hit the ball (out of play) close to Kyrgios, and they suggested if K had seen how close it was, he would have jumped the net.

I switch to TV, and the commentators there are saying T is hard done by. Finally, after K's underarm serve and T hitting it close to the spectators again, seemingly on purpose, T gets a point deduction - and the TV commentators finally turn against him when he whines about it.
