Clara Tauson made a negative gesture toward an on-court cameraman immediately after losing her Athens Open semifinal to Barbora Krejcikova on July 19. The top-seeded Dane fell in three sets after being broken seven times on serve.
Tauson lost the first set 1-6 and dropped the third set after leading briefly. She won the second set 6-4 but could not maintain momentum in the decider.
The Danish player waved the cameraman away as he approached for a close-up following the handshake at the net. Tauson had struggled throughout with her serve against the third seed.
Krejcikova will face home favorite Maria Sakkari in the final. Sakkari reached the championship match without dropping a set and is contesting her first Tour-level final since Indian Wells in 2024.
