Watch: Don't mess with Zheng Qinwen as spectator at Indian Wells receives death glare after calling out during serve

Zheng Qinwen registered one of her first wins of the season on Friday at Indian Wells taking down Victoria Azarenka 6-3, 6-4 to reach the third round but there were some moments where a pretty non fractious game on paper became one.

The Chinese ace was serving at one point in the match and a fan called out while she was trying to serve and safe to say they got a death glare from Zheng Qinwen and also from the umpire Marija Cicak.

There was also the moment in which Victoria Azarenka went on an expletive laden rant for a hawkeye call going against her which in reality wasn't correct. But overall job done for Queenwen.

“It’s not easy. I came to Indian Wells three times but it’s my first time in the third round. Also my first time beating Azarenka. Such a great player. I’m really happy tonight," she said after sealing the win in the early hours.

“It’s really tough to face her. She beat me twice when I was 19 and 21 years old. Just really happy to get this match. Thanks for all the crowd who came to support tonight.”
