"Doubles No. 1 or 100, he struggles against singles players ranked 1-8000": Tommy Paul on Rajeev Ram snub after Davis Cup exit

Tommy Paul posted a tweet explaining the Rajeev Ram Davis Cup snub which was problematic hence why it's now deleted.

In a back-and-forth with fans, Paul posted a tweet that did not speak about Rajeev Ram in a positive way as a response to fans bashing him for his play in the doubles match against Italy. For context, Paul was selected alongside Sock to take on Fognini and Bolelli in the crucial doubles tie which the Italians won.
