I think initially Hewitt suspected his opponent was trying to get him to waste a challenge. I recall someone about 50 years ago getting an ace called out and his opponent sportingly just left the second serve so the server got his point. You don't really expect that sort of thing these days.

Similar things do sometimes happen in chess.
