(Reuters) - The United States Tennis Association (USTA) was found by a jury mostly liable when Canada's Eugenie Bouchard fell in a training room at the 2015 U.S. Open, resulting in her withdrawal and a concussion, The New York Times reported on Thursday.

The jury deliberated for less than a hour before ruling in Bouchard's favour in the lawsuit against the USTA.
