Japan's Miyu Kato put her French Open women's doubles disqualification behind her as she captured the Roland Garros mixed doubles crown with Germany's Tim Puetz on Thursday.
The pair rallied to beat Canada's Bianca Andreescu and New Zealander Michael Venus 4-6 6-4 in the final on Court Philippe Chatrier.
Kato hit a ball down the court between points, inadvertently striking a ball girl. Chair umpire Alexandre Juge handed Kato a warning but Bouzkova and Sara Sorribes Tormo pointed out that the ball girl was sobbing. Kato, who said on Twitter later that she was penalised by Roland Garros and forfeited her prize money and points for the women's doubles competition, received plenty of backing from her fellow players.
