Alize Cornet is receiving the backing of the public after she was given a bizarre code violation at the US Open after she took off her shirt mid-match.The Frenchwomen was playing Swede Johanna Larsson in the first round of the US Open when she took her top off having realised it was back to front and quickly looked to put it on the right way round.Cornet was then issued with a penalty by umpire Christian Rask, which has led social media to make the comparisons between male players who regularly take off their top when switching shirts.This comes after Novak Djokovic overcome nausea during his first round win against Hungary's Marton Fucsovics, but the two male players shared ice-baths together to cool off."It was quite a magnificent feeling, I must say," Djokavic said on the experience.The difference in equality has caused many to comment, one being Andy Murray’s mother Judy, who wrote on Twitter: “Alize Cornet came back to court after 10 minute heat break. Had her fresh shirt on back to front. Changed at back of court. Got a code violation. Unsportsmanlike conduct..... 😳
But the men can change shirts on court.”But in a tournament that has reached heats of 38 degrees celsius, Djokovic was not the only one struggling with the temperature as Cornet described the conditions as a ‘nightmare’ and told doctors that she was ready to vomit and felt pain in her head and bones.This marks the second time this year Cornet has struggled with extreme heat at a Grand Slam, as in January during the Australian Open, the 28 year-old labelled the playing conditions as ‘dangerous’.You can see how Twitter reacted to Cornet's code violation below.

“Maybe the rules should change to be a little better for us. But we also understand this is a business, we are not robots, we can’t just do our thing,” Cornet said after a loss to Elise Mertens.

“I don’t want to play a match like today again. I understand both sides. It’s ugly for everyone.

“It’s heat stroke, I started feeling very bad, my head was spinning, my body hurt, it’s very strange. I felt that if I continued I had a good chance of serious problem.

“It’s not reasonable, I felt like I was in an oven. I thought, ‘We’re crazy to be here.’

“It’s great for the spectator but for us we’re at our limit. I think there’s a question for the heat rules.”
