Australia’s Ajla Tomljanovic accused Wimbledon opponent Jelena Ostapenko of “lying” on Saturday on her way to making the fourth round for the first time.
Tomljanovic was furious that 2017 French Open champion Ostapenko called the trainer at 0-4 in the final set, claiming she was suffering from an abdominal injury. “You know she’s lying, right? We all know,” the Australian, 28, told the chair umpire. “Are you taking into any consideration that she looked fine?”
