Hundreds of flag-waving Algerian supporters turned the normally genteel surroundings of Phillippe-Chatrier Court at Roland Garros into a cauldron of noise as boxer Imane Khelif sealed her place in the Olympic women's welterweight final.
Chants of "Imane" tumbled down from the stands as Khelif, who is one of two boxers at the centre of a gender eligibility row, dominated her opponent Janjaem Suwannapheng of Thailand to confirm she will get the chance to emulate compatriot Hocine Soltani, who won lightweight gold in 1996.
