Damir Jumhur celebrated with Khalid's "Liljane" in the longest match in the history of the Ummah tournament

Damir Džumhur, Bosnian tennis player, won his quarter-final match against Italian Matteo Arnaldi at the Plava Laguna Croatia Open, marking the longest match in the tournament's history. The match lasted three hours and 42 minutes and featured three tiebreaks. Džumhur expressed his pride in making history and acknowledged the challenge posed by Arnaldi, who had recently played in the semi-finals of the French Open. During the match, there was controversy over a line call in the sixth point of the tiebreak, which Džumhur felt was incorrectly ruled in favor of Arnaldi. He emphasized the importance of fair play and respect for the rules. In the third set, fans sang Halid Bešlić's song 'Ljiljani,' which motivated Džumhur and reminded him of the legacy of the late musician. No other Croatian players advanced beyond the quarter-finals.
