Stunning Australian Open umpire Marijana Veljovic steals show from Roger Federer
Not since Carlos Ramos became embroiled in Serena Williams’ US Open feud has a chair umpire garnered so much attention from tennis fans. Normally when Roger Federer steps out onto center court, all eyes tend to focus on the Swiss master and his flawless game play.
On Tuesday, he was overshadowed. His opponent had him near defeat, but it also wasn’t Tennys Sandgren. The attention of some fans watching was instead focused on the chair umpire. And it had nothing to do with violations being handed out or an argument with Federer over him cursing. No, this time it had everything to do with her looks.
Fans simply couldn’t take their eyes off chair umpire Marijana Veljovic.
Even tennis player Eugenie Bouchard couldn’t concentrate on the match as her eyes were drawn to Veljovic (Tweeting that she is "super pretty").
