Rennae Stubbs, former coach of Serena Williams, criticized Elena Rybakina's current coach, Stefano Vukov, for his behavior during the 2024 Miami Open final. Stubbs was bothered by the coach's gestures in response to the errors made by the world No. 4.
The Kazakh tennis player was defeated in the Miami Open final for the second consecutive year, this time against Danielle Collins with a score of 7-5, 6-3. The American claimed her first WTA 1000 title in her final year on the Tour after two hours and two minutes.
During the match, Rybakina appeared frustrated at times by several unforced errors she made. According to Stubbs' comments on social media, she would "lose her mind" if she were playing and her coach made those gestures."Legit if i looked over and saw my coach constantly gesturing the things I’m doing wrong, i would LOSE MY MIND! @MiamiOpen," she posted on X.
A fan responded to Stubbs and commented on Vukov's negativity, also wondering if Rybakina could play even better with another coach
"His negativity is nothing short of astounding. Does make me wonder on her level if she had someone actually uplifting. To think she’s this good with THAT going on," the fan commented.
"Yep," Stubbs replied.
