Heading into her French Open semifinal match against Frenchwoman Loïs Boisson, Coco Gauff knew she was going to be fighting a losing battle when it came to earning the support of the crowd in Paris, who would undoubtedly be pulling for their fellow countrywoman.
That was the case, as the crowd politely golf clapped throughout the match for Gauff, and cheered for her opponent with gusto. Gauff eventually dispatched Boisson in straight sets on Thursday at Court Philippe-Chatrier, despite the crowd's continued encouragement for the French underdog.
