Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova shows dark side to tennis with disgusting abuse unearthed on social media

Russia’s tennis star Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova has shared screenshots
of receiving abuse after suffering a defeat in the recently concluded Adelaide
International.
The 32-year-old lost to America’s Jessica Pegula in the quarterfinal
of the event in Adelaide with a score of 6-7, 7-5, 6-4.
Pavlyuchenkova, in a post on her official account on the social
media platform Instagram, shared screenshots of receiving abuse from different
users with a caption: "Never-ending process that we, as tennis players,
face after nearly three-hour battles. Positive vibes only."
The Samara-born will be hoping that her performance in the
first WTA event in 2024 will give her the much-needed platform to perform
better in the upcoming season. In 2023, she appeared in the main draw of the three
Grand Slams. She managed to qualify for the third round or beyond just once.
Her best outing came at the French Open where she was knocked
out after losing the quarterfinal to Karolina Muchova with a score of 7-5, 6-2.
Pavlyuchenkova will begin her Australian Open campaign on Monday with a match
against Croatia’s Donna Vekić.

- 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".
