French Open: Ball girl gets hit, Women's doubles team disqualified

In French Open, a women's doubles team was disqualified  after a ball hit by one of the players between points hit a ball girl. The doubles pair from Japan and Indonesia - Miyu Kato and Aldila Sutjiadi - were playing against Czech Republic's Marie Bouzkova and Spain's Sara Sorribes Tormo when the incident took place. Between points in the third round, Ms Kato sent a ball cross-court towards the ball girl, hitting her shoulder and leaving her visibly shaken.

Ms Kato later apologised to the ball girl on Twitter. Ms Kato, 28, and her teammate had pleaded before the French Open officials that it was an accident, with the Japanese even going to the ball girl to apologise. This is not the first time that a player has been disqualified from a Grand Slam for such an incident. At the 2020 US Open, Novak Djokovic was disqualified in the Round of 16 after he hit a ball off the court, accidentally striking a line judge in the neck.
