French Open day eight
PARIS : Highlights of the eighth day at the French Open on Sunday (times GMT):
1120 KATO AND SUTJIADI DISQUALIFIED FROM WOMEN'S DOUBLES
Japan's Miyu Kato and Indonesian Aldila Sutjiadi were disqualified from their third-round doubles match against Marie Bouzkova and Sara Sorribes Toromo.
The pair were a set down but 3-1 up in the second when Kato struck a ball towards the opposite end of the court between points, accidentally hitting a ball girl in the chest and leaving her in distress.
The player apologised and was initially given a warning by the umpire but protests from Bouzkova and Sorribes Toromo led to a default for Sutjiadi and Kato, who was in tears as she left the court.
