Following match point the Latvian screamed toward Chan\u2019s box in celebration.<\/p>\n
However, post-match Chan took exception with Hsieh, rather than Ostapenko.<\/p>\n
The 32-year-old briefly shook hands with Ostapenko but didn\u2019t even look at Hsieh as she quickly moved off court.<\/p>\n
You can watch the incident in the player above.<\/p>\n
Joint seemed perplexed by what happened post-match, as did Ostapenko, as they engaged in a brief discussion. <\/p>\n
In an amusing turn of events, Ostapenko then appeared to forget to shake hands with the chair umpire as she left the court.<\/p>\n
The net tension likely comes from a 10-year-long feud between the pair, who are both from Chinese Taipei.<\/p>\n
The animosity stems from allegations that the latter receives a special funding allocation, extra coaching resources, and personal support staff from the Chinese Taipei Tennis Association.<\/p>\n
Hsieh even withdrew from the doubles event at the Rio Olympics in 2016 over the issue.<\/p>\n
Joint\u2019s mixed US Open campaign<\/p>\n
The match capped off an eventful US Open for Joint, who took a set off Elina Svitolina in the first round of the singles but ultimately lost.<\/p>\n
However, that was the first time in her career that she managed to take a set off a top-10 opponent. <\/p>\n
The 20-year-old backed that performance up by toppling the Williams sisters.<\/p>\n
After her Flushing Meadows campaign ended, the Aussie took to social media to write: \u201cAlways a pleasure, already looking forward to next year\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Aussie Maya Joint became an unwitting participant in a bitter 10-year feud at the US Open on Tuesday,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":68706,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[16339,26417,26424,23212,23236,26436,16071,26448,26450,26421,26438,26418,26434,26442,15698,26413,26427,13272,26415,26446,26419,26440,11490,26430,26441,26431,26092,26444,26435,822,2380,26410,26416,23758,3353,25026,26433,26437,26094,26445,24765,565,408,18482,19203,26443,26452,26411,23646,26451,2063,26449,26432,26423,26428,23176,25145,23743,26426,26439,26429,15705,16348,17075,26422,24003,26447,15700,26425,26414,16700,26420,26453,14910,26412,4701,26454,15686,8021,463],"class_list":["post-68705","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-us-open","tag-s-box","tag-s-doubles-footy","tag-s-mixed-us-open-campaignthe-match","tag-s-us-open-campaign","tag-23236","tag-32-year-old","tag-6-4","tag-a-10-year-long-feud","tag-a-bitter-10-year-feud","tag-a-bitter-feud","tag-a-brief-discussion","tag-a-handshake-snub","tag-a-headlinehowever","tag-a-pleasure","tag-a-set","tag-a-special-funding-allocation","tag-a-top-10-opponent","tag-allegations","tag-an-amusing-turn","tag-an-eventful-us-open","tag-an-incident","tag-an-unwitting-participant","tag-aussie","tag-aussie-maya-joint","tag-bitter-handshake-drama","tag-celebration-however","tag-chan","tag-chinese-taipei-the-animosity","tag-court-you","tag-elina-svitolina","tag-events","tag-exception","tag-extra-coaching-resources","tag-full-display","tag-hands","tag-hao-ching-chan","tag-her-career","tag-her-flushing-meadows-campaign","tag-hsieh","tag-hsieh-and-chan","tag-joint","tag-match-point","tag-maya-joint","tag-next-year","tag-ostapenko","tag-ostapenko-the","tag-our-new-app","tag-personal-support-staff","tag-post-match","tag-post-match-chan","tag-social-media","tag-su-wei-hsieh-and-jelena-ostapenko","tag-temper","tag-tension","tag-that-performance","tag-the-20-year-old","tag-the-aussie","tag-the-chair-umpire","tag-the-chinese-taipei-tennis-association-hsieh","tag-the-court-the-net-tension","tag-the-doubles-event","tag-the-first-round","tag-the-first-time","tag-the-incident","tag-the-issue-joint","tag-the-latter","tag-the-latvian","tag-the-match","tag-the-net-post-match","tag-the-outcome","tag-the-pair","tag-the-player-above-joint","tag-the-rio-olympics","tag-the-second-round","tag-the-singles","tag-the-us-open","tag-the-williams-sisters-after","tag-the-women","tag-tuesday","tag-us-open"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68705","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=68705"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68705\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/68706"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=68705"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=68705"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/tennis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=68705"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
