〔體育中心／綜合報導〕法網女單8強戰，新科澳網冠軍凱寧（Sofia Kenin）昨激戰三盤
擊敗同胞好手柯林斯（Danielle Collins）晉級，輸掉這場美國內戰的柯林斯賽後提到，
男友坐的位置讓她分心。
昨役柯林斯發球狀況不佳，輸掉第一盤後，第二盤甚至一度連續發出3次雙誤，而她當場
叫坐在場邊看球的男友走開，「坐去別的地方，我分心了。」
柯林斯賽後表示，「我叫我的男友移到別的地方去，我想從別的角度看他，發球時看到坐
在後面的團隊，會讓我感覺很討厭。」
她還表示先前擊敗西班牙穆古魯莎（Garbine Muguruza）時，團隊是坐在球場兩側，而前
一場對上突尼西亞賈珀（Ons Jabeur）他們坐到球場正後方觀眾席，「我真的很討厭，我
想這就是心理問題。」
男友聽到之後立刻悻悻然離去，隨後還真的又在球場側邊出現，而柯林斯隨即也拿下第二
盤，不過柯林斯在第三盤後繼無力，遭到0：6賞蛋輸球，無緣生涯2闖大滿貫4強，不過相
較美網首輪出局，她已在法網打下不錯成績。
贏球的凱寧將要在今晚的4強戰對上捷克名將柯薇妥娃（Petra Kvitova），另一邊則是波
蘭19歲大黑馬史威雅蒂（Iga Swiatek）要與會外賽打上來的阿根廷波多若絲卡（Nadia P
odoroska）爭取決賽門票。

'I'm distracted': French Open player kicks boyfriend out of stands
Andrew Reid
Danielle Collins took her frustrations out on her boyfriend in bizarre scenes
during her French Open quarter-final defeat.
The American crashed out after a three set defeat to compatriot Sofia Kenin in
the last eight at Roland Garros.
Kenin extended her outstanding run of success at grand slams this year by beat
ing an injury-hit Collins 6-4 4-6 6-0.
Collins, who had won a rain-delayed three-set quarter-final against Ons Jabeur
the previous day, left the court for a medical time out while trailing Kenin
4-0 in the third set.
However, it was during the second set when her anger boiled over and Collins d
irected it at her boyfriend Tom Couch sittingm, who was sitting in the players
box on Court Philippe Chatrier.
“Sit in a different spot. SIT IN A DIFFERENT SPOT. I’m distracted,” Collins
shouted out at him.
The American explained afterwards that it was something in front of her boyfri
end that was putting her off from focusing on the match.
“I had my boyfriend move to a different spot because I was distracted by some
thing in front of him,” Collins said.
“I just wanted to be able to look at him from a different location.
“Sometimes too when I was serving the ball, I could see my team in the backgr
ound, and I didn’t like that. Actually during the [Garbine] Muguruza match th
ey sat on the side of the court, and then I really didn’t like when they were
sitting behind the court when I was playing [Ons] Jabeur. Yeah, it was just a
mental thing, I guess.”
Couch - who is also a trainer for Collins - could be seen exiting that part of
the stands, before reappearing at a different spot several moments later.
