Alongside a love heart eye emoji, the 25-year-old tweeted: “The umpire in this Rodger/Tennys match is super pretty.”

One cheeky fan posted a snap of her with the caption: “Here she is!! The chair umpire tonight for the Federer match… I would question every call she made so I could walk over, stand in front of her, forfeit the match and ask her to marry me.”

Another said: “Federer out here dropping F bombs in two different languages and then gets ratted out by the lineswoman.

“I’m up for anything that gives the chair umpire more TV time. She looks like a James Bond movie actress.”
