Kouame says insults were being hurled at him during the match

A top-seeded junior French tennis player apologized for slapping an opponent after losing a tournament match.

The slapee had his tennis racquet in his hand. The slapper did not.
Slapee should have broke it on slappers head.

I’m going to slap my wife when she get’s home from work.
Any bets on how that will play out?

What a weird opus.
