Mark Petchey is not a fan of fans blasting Maria Sakkari after she failed to secure yet another final calling on the 'keyboard warriors' to step on the court and try it.
Maria Sakkari has developed a reputation of failing in the biggest of moments and it comes after she failed to secure yet another final. For the second week in a row, Sakkari failed to make a final after playing wonderful tennis up until that point. It's a reputation that has been with her for a while as these failures have been happening for a while. She has only one title in her career and is 1-6 if finals.
The joking about her 'choking' have been rampant on social media and Petchey had enough. He responded:
"Maria Sakkari is doing everything to be the best she can. From where she has come from as a junior to now is unbelievable. Fucking embarrassing what people who know nothing about her say. The keyboard warriors should get in the ring and see how good they fucking are at this sport."
