Mirra Andreeva was dumped out of the French Open and was hit with a code violation after smacking a ball into the stands as her frustration and emotion got the better of her

Mirra Andreeva had a tough day at the office on Wednesday, suffering a straight-sets defeat to world No. 361 Lois Boisson at Roland Garros despite leading in both sets. The sixth seed struggled to cope with the unruly French crowd and eventually lashed out, smashing a ball into the stands in a moment of frustration.

In her darkest days, Lois Boisson could not even begin to imagine the scene that was unfolding under the roof on Court Philippe-Chatrier. A little over a year ago, the Frenchwoman was preparing to make her grand slam debut at Roland Garros after receiving a wildcard to the main draw.
