Tearful Coco Gauff was dumped out of the Olympics Games tennis tournament on Tuesday in a stormy defeat to impressive Donna Vekic of Croatia.
Vekic came through 7-6 (9/7), 6-2 to reach the quarterfinals after world No 2 Gauff claimed she was "getting cheated" in a lengthy argument with the chair umpire over a line call in the sixth game of the second set.
Coco Gauff was not happy with the umpire 🗣️
