Former tennis world No.1 Victoria Azarenka has made headlines after an outburst at an umpire during a match at the US Open.

In her first round match against Luce Hradecka at Flushing Meadows, Azarenka was unhappy with a line call made by the umpire and let her know about it.

Azarenka walked over to the umpire's chair and in an attempt to discredit her qualifications, asked "Have you ever played tennis?"

After taking a moment to recover when the umpire responded yes, Azarenka managed to recover with the comeback: "You probably weren't very good."
