The Alize Cornet / Tatjana Maria Incident - exploiting injury timeouts

NEWS.COM: THE MOST ANNOYING WOMAN IN TENNIS -
Alize Cornet may have won the match but she won no new fans

@BenRothenberg - Even by standards of French at Roland Garros, Alize Cornet is ridiculous drama. Maria's "you know what you did" point was everything. #RG16

Foxsports: Controversial French Open match ends with contentious, heated handshake

@thetennisisland - Cornet probably not on Maria's Christmas Card list anymore after today's match.

Times Live: French star Cornet in Roland Garros cheating storm Frenchwoman Alize Cornet was at the centre of a Roland Garros cheating storm Friday after she was accused of faking injury by an opponent.

@DKTNNS - French commentary briefly lapses into English for two words: "Drama Queen.

@rennaestubbs - I GOT TO TELL YOU! CRAMPING IS NOT FUN, I MEAN IT SUCKS & no one and i mean no one is more dramatic then Cornet!! This is some good drama!

@BarbaraRittner - Hollywood calling

@Maria_Tatjana - I am really sad and i know that it will not change the result! But this story is not done! Rules are here for something right?

Blick: Alizé Cornet steht auf Drama
Sie ist die neue Tennis-Zicke

@RobKoenigTennis - This whole Cornet/Maria incident is exactly why I am not in favour of injury time-outs. The fitter athlete should be rewarded for being so!

@Tennis - Tatjana Maria, still fuming over loss to Cornet, considering taking legal action

@NickMcCarvel - Tatjana Maria confirms: "Yes, we spoke with a lawyer this morning... things happened on this court that wasn't the rules to me" #RG16

@TennisChannel - "See you tomorrow." Yes, @AlizeCornet faces @Maria_Tatjana again tomorrow in doubles play.#CrampGate #DRAMA #RG16 @ReemAbulleil - Tatjana Maria: "More than 100 players came to me and said they are behind me" FULL STORY

Tournament abbreviations

WC
= wildcard (given by the tournament to a player that could not get in on their ranking, or did not enter in time.

PR = protected ranking. This is used when a player has been out for a certain period of time due to injury (I think it's at least 6 months) and their ranking slips down to where they wouldn't get in on their current ranking.

Q = Qualifier.

A = Alternate. Used in qualifying when a player withdraws before their first match. Also used in main draw if there was no qualifying draw and the draw was full before the player withdrew.

LL = Lucky loser. A player that loses in qualifying (usually the final round unless none of the final round losers sign the lucky loser list) and gets into main draw when a main draw player withdraws before their first match.

SE = Special exempt. A player who signed into qualifying of a tournament, but was still playing in the previous week's tournament at the time the qualifying draw was done. This player can get a special exempt into the main draw the following week.
