Belgian tennis players Zizou Bergs was upset in the Roland Garros qualifiers and his father was targeted with online abuse on social media as a result of that.

Tennis players getting hate on social media by now is just part of the experience. The tennis player was upset in his qualifying match losing to a player many expected he would beat. The result of it was social media abuse towards his father with one fan in particular leaving a comment on Instagram:

"Are you the father of this tennis c*nt? May he end tennis and life soon."

His father screenshotted the comment and responded:

"Yes. I am the father of @ZizouBergs and I am very proud of him. He is a great young man who lives his dreams and works hard every day to realize his goals," he said. "I hope he continues the process and lives very long."
