MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Coco Vandeweghe’s petulant standoff over a shortage of bananas was the low point on a horror day for the United States at the Australian Open on Monday as a raft of American players skidded out of the season’s first grand slam in the first round.

A miserable day session for America saw U.S. Open champion Sloane Stephens, seven-times grand slam winner Venus Williams, men’s 16th seed John Isner and eighth seed Jack Sock, the highest ranked U.S. player in the men’s draw, all exit the tournament.

Vandeweghe was given two code violations during her stormy 7-6(4) 6-2 defeat by Hungarian Timea Babos at the Hisense Arena.

The first came after she refused to restart play at the end of the first set until a ball-kid delivered her bananas.

”How are they not on court? I mean, c’mon, that’s not my fault,” she said during an argument with the chair umpire.

”Why do I have to play under a different set of rules? I don’t have to make myself uncomfortable because it’s ill prepared.
