Sport again today, this time tennis. Here, courtesy of Dr Faustus, is a verbal slip in a BBC report of Simona Halep’s comments on her defeat by Maria Sharapova in the French Open:

| Link: BBC Sport, ‘French Open: Maria Sharapova proud of “amazing” clay victory’ |
As Dr Faustus points out, ‘It’s not clear whether the error was made by Halep herself (speaking), by the transcriber, or by the journalist, or all three.’ It is clear, however, that it should have been spotted in the editing or proofreading process and removed before publication.
