Collins' on court outburst came during her opponent's service
American tennis player Danille Collins is running out of patience.
The 30-year-old pro lashed out at a group of unruly fans during her Round of 16 match at the Monterrey Open on Wednesday after they appeared to interrupt her opponent, Erika Andreeva, during her service.

According to reports, both players suffered interruptions from the same group of fans, but Collins’ outburst appeared to silence them after that moment.
Unfortunately, it was not enough for the world No. 11 to regain her focus, and she suffered a shocking loss to Andreeva, who earned her first career win over a top 20 ranked player.

Collins was the top seed entering the tournament, but Andreeva took the opening set with ease, winning 1-6.
Collins responded by taking the set 6-3, but Andreeva would secure her spot in the quarterfinal, taking the third set 6-3 to finish the match in just under two hours.
"Every time I play this [level] of opponent I try not to think about [their ranking], because it puts more pressure on me," Andreeva said after the match, via the WTA website. "Can I do it? And, I have to take all my opportunities I get. But this time I was like, OK, I just hit the yellow ball and I don't care who I play."

Collins is coming off a quarterfinals finish at the 2024 Paris Olympics. She plans to retire at the end of this season.
