Former world number one Serena Williams’ ex-coach Rennae Stubbs has lambasted journalists who were of the opinion that players who participated in the recently concluded WTA Finals should not have complained about the issues that occurred in the event.
The tournament concluded on Monday in the Mexican city of Cancun where Poland’s Iga Swiatek emerged victorious after beating America’s Jessica Pegula in the final in straight sets with a score of 6-1, 6-0.
The world number two Belarus’ Aryna Sabalenka, Kazakhstan’s Elena Rybakina, Czech Republic’s Marketa Vondrousova and others complained about the overall organisation of the event.
Stubbs was recently quoted in a report where she stated that players who qualified for the event with all their hard work had all the right to complain if there were any issues.
“Give me a break. No chance, no chance,” she said. “If I'm there as a WTA top eight player and I've worked my a*s off all year I've supported your tournaments. I’ve gone and played your mandatory WTA 1000s when I don't want to f*cking play because I'm injured or I'm tired; You're forcing me and you're also fining me, okay.
“I can tell you a million stories from behind the scenes that I won't because I know agents and I know players and I know that the history of this tour and I'm super supportive of the tour. Tennis is my favorite sport, clearly, and I want it to succeed.”
