Sara Sorribes-Tormo and Marie Bouzkova moved through to the fourth round at the French Open, but not in the best circumstances in the Women's Doubles at Roland Garros.
Facing the team of Aldila Sutjiadi and Miyu Kato who were 3-1 up in the second set, they defaulted the match.
But in horrific circumstances, as a ball girl saw a return fired straight at her face and they were given a warning, but it was only when Bouzkova and Sorribes-Tormo pointed out that the ball girl was crying and continued to make their case.
The umpire from there after a long time and discussion with officials defaulted them.
Watch the video below including the incident as Sorribes-Tormo and Bouzkova prepared to serve.
Ouch. A default in women’s doubles. Sorribes with wins by default and walkover in 24 hours.
