French Open: 'I'd be crying' - Taylor Fritz gets booed again - this time before match even begins

Eurosport's experts have reacted to the «uncomfortable» scenes of Taylor Fritz getting roundly booed yet again by the fans at the 2023 French Open on Saturday. Days after he was loudly jeered and booed during and after his victory over Frenchman Arthur Rinderknech late on Court Suzanne-Lenglen, the American was back on the same court — and he received a very similar reception. Ad Before he had even emerged fully from the entrance to the court, Fritz was aware of the welcome he would receive as the fans began to boo, and it got considerably louder as he emerged on the red dirt.

Tim Henman agreed: «It’s a bit uncomfortable.

The match hasn’t even started, but he’s back out on the same court where he played, having won the match and telling the crowd to be quiet. They obviously haven’t forgotten.» Alize Lim added: «I don’t know what’s going on, I’m amazed to see this. It’s sad for him.

»He was provoking them the other day, but it’s not the same people. It’s different ticket-holders today, but it seems like the same people. «If I was him, I’d be crying right now, but he seems to not care at all.
