US Open: Ostapenko's Banishment, Cirstea's Streak, and Rybakina's Shock Defeat
Jelena Ostapenko took matters into her own hands during her US Open match against Bernarda Pera, angrily confronting a loud fan who had been warned multiple times by the umpire. The fan eventually left, and Ostapenko went on to win the match and advance to the fourth round. Court 17, where the match took place, has been the subject of complaints from players due to the strong odor of marijuana, but Ostapenko was more bothered by the heckling. She will face Iga Swiatek in the next round.
