Hewitt let fly after a line call was judged out by Portuguese umpire Carlos Ramos. He then asked match referee Norbert Peick, "Who is this poof?" Hewitt denied using the word but video replay confirmed he said "poof". The Victorian Gay and Lesbian Rights Lobby slammed Hewitt, describing his comment as malicious, vindictive and offensive. Spokesman Pete Dillon called on Hewitt to apologise. "Whilst we understand the tension in this match and in other sporting events, reverting to this sort of unnecessary and vile name calling is entirely inappropriate," he said.
