テニスの四大大会の一つ、全仏（ローランギャロス）の、女子ダブルス３回戦で、加藤未唯が落ちていたボールを相手コートへなにげなく返球したところ、ボールガールに当たるというアクシデントが起きます。
The ball, hit casually by Kato to the opposite end of the court between points, struck the ball girl and left her in tears.
Kato immediately apologized to the girl who was crying and shaking.

The umpire initially only gave Kato a warning but, with Bouzkova and Sorribes Tormo drawing attention to the crying ball girl, the supervisor and referee were called to the court and eventually decided a default was merited. （失格に相当する）➾disqualify
加藤はビデオを見てほしいと訴えましたが、却下され、アンラッキーだったと言われます。
Kato asked for footage to be checked at the time of the incident but the request was declined by a supervisor on the court, and was later told she had just been "unlucky."
加藤はインスタで、ボールガールやパートナーに謝罪をし、賞金とポイントが剥奪されたことを明かしました。
“I would like to sincerely apologize to the Ball Girl, my partner Aldila & team, & my supporters because of today’s unfortunate mishap. It was completely unintentional. As a result, I am penalized by RG (Roland Garros) by forfeiting my prize money & points. I appreciate all your continued support!”

腑に落ちない厳格な処分に、プロテニス選手協会が緊急声明を発表する騒動になります。
The Professional Tennis Players Association released a statement declaring the decision to default Japan's Miyu Kato and Indonesia's Aldila Sutjadi during a French Open women's doubles match was "unjustifiably disproportionate and unfair."（不当に釣り合わないものであり不公平である）
"It is evident that the incident was accidental and not at all aggressive in nature." (この事件は偶発的なもので、まったく攻撃的な性格のものではなかったことは明らかだ)
