French Boisson ensures tennis sensation in Paris
The French Open experience a tennis fairy tale. A local hero is sensational in the semi -finals. The number two in the world is waiting there.
The French Wildcard player Lois Boisson continued her sensational run at the French Open and surprisingly reached the semi-finals in Paris. The 22-year-old, number 361 in the world, defeated the Russian Mirra Andrejewa 7: 6 (8: 6), 6: 3 in the Stade Roland Garros and converted the Court Philippe-Chatrier into a rabid.
Boisson is the first French woman in a Paris semi-final since Marion Bartoli 14 years ago. This Thursday she will meet Coco Gauff. The American prevailed in the quarterfinals against her compatriot Madison Keys 6: 7 (6: 8), 6: 4, 6: 1. In the other semi-finals, the world ranking aryna Sabalenka from Belarus and defending champion Iga Swiadek from Poland are faced with each other.
Strange incident around Boisson
Boisson was only known to the French Open. Actually, the French woman should have given her Grand Slam debut in the French capital last year. But then Boisson contracted a cruciate ligament tear, had to pause a year. In the meantime there was even a career end in the room.
She then made headlines for the first time in mid -April – in an involuntary way. The British Harriet Dart complained to the clay court tournament in Rouen, France, that Boisson smell badly. “Can you tell her that she should use a deodorant? … because she smells really bad,” said Darts of the referee.
Boisson took the incident with humor. She posted a photo of herself on Instagram on the square with a deodorant in a well -known brand inserted into the picture, marked the company and wrote: “Apparently need a collaboration”.
First Pegulla, now Andrejewa
Boisson was also asked about the incident several times in Paris. Above all, it makes sporty headlines from Paris these days. In the round of 16, she had already brought Jessica Pegula from the USA to despair, now she was too strong for Andrejewa.
