The US Open was the first Grand Slam event to receive equal pay for women, and I like to think of myself as a champion of equality, and on Wednesday, after a strange incident involving Alize Cornet the day before, it quickly responded to criticism. The 28-year-

Meet Johanna Larsson\'s turn.
During the break, she changed a dress, but when she returned to the stadium she suddenly realized that she had put her coat behind --to-front.
Cornet quickly took off her coat and exposed her black --and-
The red sports bra and put it back in the right direction.
The whole process took only 15 seconds, but it gave the world a chance to break the code from President\'s referee Christian Rask on the 31st.
At the same time, in the absence of any punishment, it is often seen that male players change their shirts when changing their outfits.

\"The code violation that USTA handed over to corcornet in the first round of the US Open is unfair and is not based on the WTA rules, WTA said in a statement: \"Since WTA has no objection to changing the rules of clothing in court. \".
\"WTA has always been, and will always be, a pioneer in women\'s and women\'s movements.
This is against the Grand Slam rules and we are pleased to see that USTA has changed this policy now.
Alice did nothing wrong.
\"You can usually guarantee that fashion will be a topic at the US Open.
