Fans on social media got triggered after a recent comment made by Russia’s young tennis star Liudmila Samsonova.

The 24-year-old recently made a comment about the former world number one Poland’s Iga Swiatek, who according to her is the ‘best player in the world’.

Those comments did not go down well with the fans on social media platform X — previously known as Twitter.

Swiatek lost her number one crown after a disappointing outing in the US Open where she was knocked out of the tournament after losing to Latvia’s Jeļena Ostapenko in the round of 16 with a score of 3-6, 6-3, 6-1.

That opportunity was grabbed with both hands by Sabalenka who ended up playing in the final of the fourth and final Grand Slam of the year.

However, that proved to be not a memorable outing as she ended up losing to America’s young tennis sensation Coco Gauff with a score of 3-6, 6-3, 6-2.

However, Sabalenka had a fabulous year at the highest level where she ended up playing in the semifinal or beyond in all four Grand Slams.

She also won the Australian Open after beating Elena Rybakina in the final with a score of 4-6, 6-3, 6-4.
