Coco such a sweetheart, asking if Sori wants to shake hands due to her illness. (Sori agrees to the handshake).
Report TheCarambaExperience April 26, 2026 12:34 PM BST
Sori too emotional for her own good on court. Even when she was playing well and being up in the first set she found things to complain about and disrupt her rhythm instead of trying to stay composed.
