Roland Garros have confirmed that they will “make adjustments” to their courts following complaints from a number of players over poorly-placed advertising boards that have left at least one player injured.
British star Katie Boulter is among those to have aired grievances having stumbled on a foot-high Lacoste-branded board during her second-round loss to Anastasia Potapova at the French Open. The young Turkish player Zeynep Sonmez required stitches and bruised a knee having also collided with a board when bowing out to Daria Kasatkina in the opening round.
