- Tamara Korpatsch refused to shake hands with Wang Xinyu after defeating her in a tense second-round match at the French Open.
- The incident stemmed from a disputed line call in the opening set, where Wang crossed the net to inspect a ball mark on Korpatsch's side of the court.
- Wang's action led to a code violation for unsportsmanlike conduct and created lingering tension throughout the match.
- Korpatsch defended her decision, stating that the umpire confirmed the ball was out and that she resented being portrayed as an unfair player.
- Korpatsch, who is through to the Roland Garros third round for the first time, will next face seventh seed Elina Svitolina.
