Shake Fake: Korpatsch Declines Handshake After Heated Argument with Wang

German tennis player Tamara Korpatsch (ranked 95th) defeated 32nd-seeded Wang Xinyu 6-2, 2-6, 6-3 at Roland Garros on May 27, 2026, reaching the third round of a Grand Slam for the first time in her 12th major appearance. After the match, Korpatsch declined Wang's post-match handshake, drawing boos from fans. The snub followed a heated mid-match dispute in which Wang crossed the net to inspect a ball mark on the German's side of the court, and Korpatsch later stated she refused the handshake because she felt Wang had accused her of cheating.
