A courtside spectator at the US Open was ejected on Tuesday after a complaint from leading German player Alexander Zverev that the patron had uttered the \u201cthe most famous Hitler phrase\u201d.<\/p>\n

In dramatic scenes on centre court after midnight in New York, a clearly annoyed Zverev called out the patron, who had shouted from the stands. The chair umpire reacted immediately to help identify the fan, who was swiftly escorted from Arthur Ashe Stadium.<\/p>\n

Late in a fourth round five-set match between Zverev and Italian Jannik Sinner, the German stopped playing to complain about the spectator, who was sitting close to the players\u2019 seats on court.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe just said the most famous Hitler phrase there is in this world. It\u2019s unacceptable. This is unbelievable,\u201d Zverev could be heard saying.<\/p>\n

Experienced chair umpire James Keothavong responded immediately.<\/p>\n

\u201cWho said that? Who said that? Who said that?<\/p>\n

\u201cOK, we\u2019re going to get him out. We\u2019ll get him out.<\/p>\n

\u201cLadies and gentlemen, as a courtesy to both players, please remain fair and respect the players.\u201d<\/p>\n

Security staff were cheered as they removed the patron.<\/p>\n

Zverev leads Sinner in 2-0 in the final set.<\/p>\n
