Belgium’s David Goffin claimed he was spat at by a French Open spectator and warned that tennis is in danger of descending into the firm grip of “hooligans.” Goffin said a fan spat chewing gum at him as he defeated French player Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard 4-6, 6-4, 6-3, 6-7 (4/7), 6-3 on a raucous Court 14 at Roland Garros.
