I genuinely can't believe that the WTA official Twitter account still hasn't published anything about Maria Sakkari reaching a WTA 1000 final at the end of a great battle vs. the US Open champion and world #3 Gauff This is literally one of the biggest tournaments of the year...
As Indian Wells ends, tennis fans vent frustration at WTA social media coverage after bizarre delay in Sakkari Gauff result
WTASunday, 17 March 2024 at 20:30
Commentators
and fans criticized the WTA for not updating the Indian Wells semifinal between
Coco Gauff and Maria Sakkari on their social media platforms. The official WTA
channels had no videos or tweets of the match until several hours later,
prompting fans to question whether the organization gives enough importance to
the tour and its players.
For many,
it seemed unbelievable that there were no updates considering the significance
of the occasion, a WTA 1000 event and for many players and fans, the most
relevant, often dubbed the "fifth Grand Slam."
Tennis
journalist Mario Boccardi expressed disbelief that such an important match was
not updated by the WTA:
“I genuinely
can't believe that the WTA official Twitter account still hasn't published
anything about Maria Sakkari reaching a WTA 1000 final at the end of a great
battle vs. the US Open champion and world #3 Gauff This is literally one of the
biggest tournaments of the year...”
“I couldn't
believe it either. If Coco Gauff had won we all know it would 100% have been
there. We just want a level playing field for ALL players. It's so
disrespectful towards @mariasakkari,” some fan responded on X:

Here are
some of the opinions from fans on social media:
they were posting Sakkari content mainly, until the end of 1st set ,then stopped posting anything entirely
Worst organization in terms of social media handling. Genuinely wonder if they even care about the tour and the players

Ridiculous, WatA need to get their act together. Masters biggest after slams
If the WTA don’t care about the women how do they expect anyone else to 😭😭
Their whole system is awful.
I wanted to watch the match's highlights just a moment ago, but nothing has been published yet. Poor WTA.
The official wta highlights are always the worst option anyway tbh

- 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".
