Wimbledon match ends bizarrely after woman screams
Johanna Konta made history Tuesday afternoon when she became the first British woman to advance to the Wimbledon semifinals since 1978 by beating Simona Halep. But the thrilling match ended in a little bit of controversy.
Although she was clearly able to return it, Halep appeared to stop playing after hearing the noise, and the ball was stopped in the net, giving Konta the historic victory.
Afterward, even Konta seemed a bit unsure of what exactly happened, guessing that a woman on her side of the court screamed. She said because the noise was heard as she was returning the ball, it actually affected her more than Halep. She'll face Venus Williams in the semifinals.
