USA TODAY – US Open officials have been accused of sexism after handing Alize Cornet a code violation for adjusting her shirt on court.

The French tennis star, 28, walked back onto court following a medically induced heat break without realising she had accidentally put her top on incorrectly.

She strode to the back of the court and turned her back to her opponent Johanna Larsson before taking her top off and putting it back on the right way round.

During the clothing change, which took around 10 seconds, the world no. 31 exposed her black sports bra.

The umpire on court at the time, Christian Rask, immediately issued Cornet with a penalty after deeming the incident inappropriate.

Never been more in support of sexism charges than I am right now.  Wage gap, C suite representation, blah blah whatever.   Penalties for flashing the beautiful female form?  I won’t stand for that.  Not as the Smokeshow champion I won’t.  Every time I turn this shit on (which is admittedly rarely) some dude is shirtless on the sidelines.  Torrents of sweat drip drip dripping down their sweaty chest, dampening the curly gross chest hair, exposing the world to gross moist man nipples.  And we’re punishing beautiful women for airing their shirt out and briefly showing off some sports-bra-clad boobies?  Only explanation is this judge is one of those grumpy gay guys (not that there’s anything wrong with that) that Gay Pat told me about, the ones that are always in a bad mood and disparaging of women.  Hate those guys – because they’re grumpy and prude, not for the other reason.
