KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. — Alize Cornet lost in the first round of the Miami Open, but she’s found an admirable way to keep winning into the second week of the event. French photographer Corinne Dubreuil endured her worst nightmare over the weekend when her twoNikon D4S cameras were stolen from her desk in the media room (the culprits left only the lenses behind).

Miami Open tournament director Adam Barrett said they are not responsible for the incident; the lost property is worth nearly $14,000.

Cornet came to the rescue of the devastated journalist, putting together a Kickstarter-esque campaign on behalf of Dubreuil.

The photojournalist was lost for words:

So far, just over $3,640 has been raised. Nikon USA Support also took notice and reacted with interest at seeing a police report and the serial numbers of the stolen cameras.
