Amélie Mauresmo, Roland-Garros 2026

“The machine is not 100% reliable”: Roland-Garros stands by human line judges, citing Casper Ruud’s reaction

A day after a disputed call proved costly for Casper Ruud against João Fonseca, Roland-Garros director Amelie Mauresmo defended keeping human line judges — and leaned on the Norwegian's own reaction to justify trusting people over a technology she still considers unreliable on clay.

Casper Ruud, Roland-Garros 2026

“Unfortunate, obviously, in my situation”: Casper Ruud names the call without quite naming it, on the way out of Roland-Garros

Casper Ruud, after his Roland-Garros exit, subtly referenced a pivotal line call in his loss to João Fonseca. The two-time finalist's brief, yet emphatic, 'Yes. Yes.' confirmed the added weight of this defeat, given the open draw.
