"Seriously does she know what a double bounce actually is": Rennae Stubbs hits back at tempesterous Jelena Ostapenko after Brisbane outburst
WTA
Ex-coach of the former world number one Serena Williams, Rennae
Stubbs, has hit back at Latvian tennis star Jelena Ostapenko for her outburst
during the Brisbane International.
The 26-year-old took a dig at the sitting umpire for awarding a
point to her opponent Victoria Azarenka in the quarterfinal of the competition.
During the changeover, the 2017 French Open winner was heard lashing out
at the chair umpire.
"You make so much mistake. With three bounce. I never
want you on my match again,” she said. “You will never be on my match. You will
never be on my match. I don't want you on my matches. You ruin my match. Final
in Linz I will never forget. Never.”
Stubbs, in a post on her official account on social media
platform X — previously known as Twitter — has hit back at Ostapenko and
questioned whether she is aware of the rules in tennis.
“Umpire Julie Kjnedlie must just look at her schedule when
she gets Ostapenko and say “oh bloody hell”… seriously does she know what a
double bounce actually is?????,” she wrote.
Ostapenko went out of the competition after losing to the
former world number in the last-eight clash with a score of 6-3, 3-6, 7-5.
