- The girl needs professional help... and I don't mean sports.
- The way the current tennis players perform today, especially in the WTA, they should not be given any extra money. Let them boycott. They do not look like professionals. More balls land out of bounds and into the net than anything.
- Way past time for chair umps to REGAIN CONTROL over these entitled 'Special People'.
- WTF is this here for????
- Doubt she recalls which 'man' she acquired those underwear from... but the label probably has "ATP" on it.
- I've lately been thinking everyone is pointing to the wrong location for "illness" and constant "injury". Perhaps some 'couch time' is in order at this point?
- She has long outlived this shitshow she started. So, according to this lucky winner, ALL THE WORLD's CITIZENS should shun one another while forced to live under threatening, insane Leaders and Regimes? A sad individual who thinks she's changing the World with her ridiculous shunning of Russian opponents. Must be a hard life worrying about Ukraine from her balcony overlooking Monte Carlo? WTA needs to take a REAL stand here. Otherwise ban flags and handshakes by Russia, China, Israel, Iran, USA..... (Get the picture??)
- They still with that crap??? These Ukrainians need to just stop. Your Russian opponents have nothing to do with the war against your country. They didn't start it and by you not shaking their hands certainly won't end it. All this bitterness and unforgiveness will not augur well for these silly women.
- Tennis knows it has a huge problem with Hi-Tech line calls on clay. They've admitted so behind closed doors. However they do nothing except make a rule that no one can argue a call; no matter the proof. Perhaps the new WTA CEO will take a stand??
- "Accused" ?? They've been doing this regularly at tourneys... and yelling over the opponent standing right in front of them. Last season as well, when at one point Coco asked them to stop.
