Dart ended up losing the match to Boulter in a close three-set battle. Despite the heated moments on the court, both players are expected to move past the incident and continue their friendship off the court.
It was certainly a dramatic match filled with emotions and tense moments, but in the end, Boulter emerged victorious and Dart will have to regroup for her next tournament.
