More Olympic tennis tension erupts in Iga Swiatek-Danielle Collins match

Danielle Collins, a veteran American tennis player, was forced to retire from her Olympic quarterfinal match against world No. 1 Iga Swiatek due to a stomach injury. Collins, who had previously suffered a heat stroke and convulsions, expressed frustration with tournament officials for inadequate water availability. During the match, Collins hit Swiatek with a backhand shot, injuring her. Collins later criticized Swiatek's perceived insincerity regarding her injury, stating that she didn't need "fakeness." Collins's retirement marked the end of the American women's singles competition at the Olympics, with all four players eliminated. Other American players, including Coco Gauff and Emma Navarro, also experienced contentious moments during their matches, highlighting a lack of camaraderie among some players. Gauff expressed frustration with officiating at Roland Garros, while Navarro criticized her opponent's "cutthroat" behavior. Collins, who announced her retirement from the WTA tour this year, intends to focus on starting a family, acknowledging the challenges of balancing motherhood with a professional tennis career.
