Wimbledon star slams tennis chiefs over unfair treatment after crying on court

French star Alize Cornet has criticised Wimbledon's rules on tickets after suffering a second-round defeat to Elena Rybakina.

The defending women's singles champion won in straight sets on Thursday after Cornet suffered a knee injury that left her in tears on Centre Court. With that complaint, the 33-year-old could do little to stop Rybakina from marching into the third round at SW19.
