Coco Gauff broke down in tears during a tense French Open moment on Thursday.
Attempting to advance to the 2024 women’s finals, Gauff challenged a controversial call while playing No. 1 seed Iga Swiatek.
Swiatek took the first set, 6-2.
Knowing that she needed to rally in the second set, Gauff dug in and played more aggressive.
The No. 3 seed held a 2-1 lead in the second when play abruptly stopped.
“Coco Gauff is not happy,” an announcer said. “Neither are the crowd.”
Gauff challenged a call and confronted the chair ump on the court.
“They’re booing because they know you are wrong,” Gauff said.
She added: “Are you serious?”
As the crowd booed in the background, Gauff began crying.
