Default Eggcorn in AP tennis report

El D started a thread a few weeks ago about words people don't realize two are different. This example was in an AP report on Yahoo News about the US Open:

"After losing the second set, Sharapova took a different tact to start the final set — she didn't make a sound for the first few points, coming back from 0-30 to break Mauresmo in the first game."
