Coco Gauff wants the sport of tennis to implement a video review system after a controversial call cost her at the French Open
Coco Gauff is calling for change in the sport of tennis after a controversial umpire decision at the French Open led to her loss against Iga Świątek.
Gauff added that “it sucks” to be able to watch a match back online and “see that you were completely right” about a missed call.“What does that give you in that moment?' she continued. 'In situations you can call for the supervisor, but there’s not much they can do from that standpoint. I definitely think as a sport we have to evolve, and we have the technology. They’re showing it on TV, so I don’t get why the player can’t see it.
“Are you serious? They are booing you because you are wrong,” Gauff told Tourte, referring to the crowd’s negative reaction to the call. Defeating Gauff in a 6-2, 6-4 victory marked Świątek’s 20th match victory at the French Open. If she is able to win the grand prize, it would mark her fourth victory in five years. The Polish athlete called her match against Gauff “intense” and pointed to her overall consistency as the reason she was victorious.
