Fans at French Open hurt by falling metal structure

French Open organisers are investigating how a metal panel fell on to the crowd from the upper part of Court Philippe Chatrier, tournament director Gilbert Ysern said on Tuesday.

Organisers first said three fans had been injured but Ysern told a news conference only one was hurt, suffering a wrist injury that required further checks at a hospital.

The incident occurred during the quarter-final between Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Japanese fifth seed Kei Nishikori.
