LONDON (AP) - The Latest from Wimbledon (all times local):
8:45 p.m.
CoCo Vandeweghe argued with chair umpire Kelly Thomson about whether a point in her Wimbledon quarterfinal loss should have been replayed because a line judge’s call was distracting. Two points after the exchange, the match was over.
The 24th-seeded American told Thomson her explanation was “baloney” and said: “It is a distraction on the play. Have you ever played tennis?”
Vandeweghe also said to the official: “How are you that wrong?”
In her news conference after the 6-3, 6-3 loss to Magdalena Rybarikova, Vandeweghe said: “If someone yells out in the middle of a swing, that’s a hindrance call, and usually you replay the point.”
