I am as excited by the @CocoGauff and @EmmaRaducanu rivalry as I am big fans of both. But anyone who thought the match yesterday was what we want to tune in and watch for the next 15 years is selling smoke in terms of the actual tennis. Much better to come hopefully next time
"Hopefully much better next time" - Mark Petchey not impressed with Gauff v Raducanu match
ATPThursday, 19 January 2023 at 13:15
Emma Raducanu and Coco Gauff played a solid match but the quality wasn't what many had hoped for as both players hit a plethora of errors.
Many were excited by this matchup because it featured two players that are probably going to be one of the biggest stars in the next 10 years. Gauff won and that was expected by many but the quality wasn't what many hoped. Too many unforced errors from both players as they tried to play aggressively but it ended up being quite erratic.
Writing on Twitter, Petchey said:

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
