Alize Cornet has been forced to pull out of the women's doubles tournament at Wimbledon after suffering a knee injury, having slammed organisers over their treatment of lower-ranked players.
Cornet was left in tears after her right knee gave out in her singles match against defending champion Elena Rybakina, having entered the contest with that same leg already heavily strapped. She bravely battled on, but ultimately lost 6-2 7-6 (7-2).
The injury has now forced Cornet to pull out of the doubles tournament, where she was due to play alongside Panna Udvardy against British pair Freya Christie and Ali Collins on Saturday.
