WILDCARD Lois Boisson stunned sixth seed Mirra Andreeva to reach the semi-finals of the French Open.

- BY ANDY SIMS

The 22-year-old Frenchwoman, ranked 361 in the world, pulled off her second scarcely believable upset in the space of two days with a 7-6 (6) 6-3 victory.

Boisson dropped to the clay with her hands over her eyes in emotional scenes before cupping her ear to the crowd on a packed, raucous Court Philippe-Chatrier.

It was all too much for Russian teenager Andreeva, who had two set points in the first but suffered a complete meltdown in the second.

She told the crowd to “shut up”, received a code violation for whacking a ball into the stands, burst into tears and forced her mother Raisa to leave her player’s box.
