"Players need to do this more": Tennis fans praise Pegula for calling out journalists tweeting she cried after US Open loss
WTATuesday, 05 September 2023 at 23:15
Fans
reacted to Jessica Pegula's comments about journalists after her defeat at the
US Open.
The World
No. 3 was one of the local hopes for the US Open trophy to return to American
hands, something that hasn't happened since 2017 with Sloane Stephens.
However,
Pegula suffered a resounding defeat in the fourth round against her compatriot
Madison Keys with a convincing score of 6-1, 6-3. The recent champion of the
Canadian Open once again failed to reach the later stages of a Grand Slam, as
she has never gone beyond the quarterfinals.
Following
this tough loss, some media outlets shared a photo of Pegula claiming that she
was crying after her elimination. In response, the American tennis player
addressed the press to clarify that she did not cry after the defeat:
"Were
you guys the ones that tweeted that I cried when I walked off the court?
Weren't you guys The Tennis Podcast? Someone said I walked off the court in
tears. I most definitely was not crying. I'm pretty sure that was from you
guys. I don't know if you tweeted it exactly. I definitely wasn't crying,"
Pegula said.

“Doubt Jess
will be the number 1 ranked American for too much longer. If Mad or Coco win
the tournament then one them will over take her.”

three in the near future unfortunately.

- He's a Cool Dude (and very funny guy). Always fun to be in the presence of Tomasz. Something he mentioned here is what many who have coached at any level can relate to -- "the crazy parents committee". It relates to my coaching experiences in kid's sports. My #1 complaint about coaching kids is Problem Parents!! It can be a very abusive, even violent situation with many parents when it comes to their kid's sports. In the end, it was no longer worth the potential (all too common) altercations for me and I quit. But thanks to Tomasz, I now have a name for those (you?) people: The Crazy Parents Committee.mandoist26-09-2024
