As thunderstorms hit the Montpellier region, the Open Occitanie matches were interrupted for several minutes… due to a power cut.

Which shows that even indoor tennis matches can be interrupted due to the weather.

While the Montpellier region is experiencing a stormy episode this Thursday, January 30, with a yellow alert, the lights of the Sud de France Arena have lost intensity before suddenly going out.

de Jong – Cobolli interrupted

The problem is that the quarter-finals of the Open Occitanie started early in the afternoon, so the match between Jesper de Jong and Flavio Cobolli had to be interrupted twice after two breaks, due to the lack of light.

Before resuming definitively and seeing the surprise victory of the Dutchman against the Italian and seeded No. 3, 6-3, 7-6 [2].
