There were finally some signs of glitches in the Iga Swiatek win-machine on Saturday – but that did not stop the world No 1 from booking her place in the French Open fourth round.
Alize Cornet hit out at a "handful of idiots" as she was booed after a thigh injury forced her to retire Saturday in her French Open third round clash against China's Zheng Qinwen. Cornet, playing at her 61st consecutive Grand Slam, called it quits while trailing her 19-year-opponent 6-0, 3-0 on Court Philippe Chatrier. "What is amazing that people had the cheek to boo me on the court when I had to abandon the match. And it was because I was in pain," said Cornet, whose left thigh was heavily strapped.
Iga Swiatek had to negotiate a rare second-set dip to extend her winning streak and take another step towards her second French Open title.

Alize Cornet was booed by the home crowd when she was forced to retire injured at 0-6 0-3 down in her French Open third round match. The Frenchwoman arrived onto court with both of her thighs heavily strapped and could barely move against Qinwen Zheng, who won all nine games before advancing to the second week with the world No 40's retirement, as former pro Barbara Schett admitted it could have been the 32-year-old's last appearance at her home Grand Slam.
