Tennis fans have taken aim at the chair umpire in the French Open women’s final after the match between Barbora Krejcikova and Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova ended in farcical scenes.
Barbora Krejcikova won her first Grand Slam title by winning over Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova 6-1, 2-6, 6-4 in the French Open final. This was only the fifth major tournament in singles for Krejcikova, a 25 year old from the Czech Republic.
Krejcikova won her maiden grand slam singles title after beating Pavlyuchenkova to become the first Czech woman in 40 years to conquer Roland Garros.
The 25 year old Krejcikova dedicated her victory to her mentor, the former Wimbledon champion Jana Novotna who died of cancer at the age of 49 in 2017.
She is the third unseeded women’s champion in the last five years at Roland Garros. Krejcikova now will try to become the first woman since Mary Pierce in 2000 to win the French Open singles and doubles titles in the same year.
