For 20-year-old Gauff it was an afternoon of frustration and fury in Paris. The flashpoint came as Gauff was trying to claw her way back into the match, leading 2-1 in the second set on the Swiatek serve.Swiatek’s second serve was called out just as Gauff hit her return long. But when the umpire overruled the call and awarded the point to Swiatek, Gauff furiously insisted that she hit her return after the ball had already been called out, and so the point should have been replayed.

‘He called it and then I hit it. I’m a thousand per cent sure,’ said the American.
