Harriet Dart's Unusual Request during Rouen Open Loss

British tennis player Harriet Dart made an odd request during her loss at the Rouen Open.

Harriet Dart, the British number four, faced a humiliating 6-0 6-3 defeat to Lois Boisson at the Rouen Open. During a changeover in the second set, Dart was heard asking the umpire to tell Boisson to put on deodorant, claiming she smelled bad. Boisson, who is making her first WTA Tour appearance of the season after injury struggles, remained oblivious and claimed a comprehensive victory to reach the last 16. Neither player has mentioned the incident on social media. This event has raised eyebrows in the tennis world.
