America’s tennis star Jessica Pegula has opened up having
words with her doubles partner Coco Gauff about the support of American football
teams. Both players have remained very close on the court and
played as a doubles pair in several tournaments.
Pegula, who is the daughter of the Buffalo Bills side in the
National Football League (NFL), was recently quoted in a report where she
opened up about having conversations with Gauff who has been a supporter of the
Miami Dolphins side.

"When it was like last year coming close Coco Gauff's
like, and she won't say anything, and I don't say anything, but it's like
there, but her dad will, like, try and get me going," said Pegula.
"Oh man, those Miami Dolphins we're looking good. And I'm just like
whatever.
"Yeah, I mean, hey, they're a good team," she
continued. "So, uh, they've been playing a lot better the past year, so
they're going to be tough in our division. We've kind of owned the division the
last few years, but it might be a little bit tougher."

Pegula also recalled the time when she went to watch the
Buffalo-Dolphins game. "It's funny, I've been here a few times for Buffalo
Bill's games, where we sit like, literally on the sideline here, and uh,
usually the roof, it angles the sun right on the away team," she said. "So
you're just on the side and, you know, everyone from Buffalo Bills is baking
so it's pretty funny.”

- This financial 'chump-change' means nothing to Saba. Her vacuity likely cannot fathom the "problem" with her unprofessional actions and reactions in general. The racquet smash is not my focus. My focus was/is on her distasteful, totally unprofessional, disgusting facial expressions and eye-rolls while standing behind Elena as she spoke on the podium. This woman needs a degree of therapy for her True Attitude(s). She is not fooling anyone within the WTA circles with her post-match winner "humor" and smiley behavior. Her True Self comes out when losing a set/match and as a runner-up on the podium.

- WTA has been unfairly ignoring Elena ever since Wimbledon. Arguably biased against her. Same with the most major sponsors whom normally pounce on the Wimbledon Winners for sponsorship. Didn't happen. Her unfair treatment was always in Lena's subconcious; how she was largely ignored after Wimbledon. Her sister helped her a lot during that period. Next came illnesses and minor injury. A lot of time was lost, and physical (mental?) issues were frequent, as she fought through the absurdiy and general nonsense brought-on by her coach/partner. He was a Loser then, he's a Loser still. Although he has lowered his attitude, volume, and non-stop yapping from the box since he wore the organizations out with his non-stop legal letters begging for mercy and ultimately fully reinstated. Rybakina deserves all the accolades others have enjoyed and more for her strength and will to succeed. Hope it continues.mandoist15-09-2026
- Ball bouncing is not that extreme but... ...they can eliminate the time-wasting walks back & forth to the Towel Bin between serves!!! That's just plain ridiculous to see some of them take minimum 30 seconds between every serve to shuffle over to their towel bin, dab their face, or wipe their handle. "Toweling-off" is an obvious time waster.mandoist15-09-2026
- Raducan'tdo and the media's love affair with her may be due to her looks. Since she does nothing for tennis, what else is going on with the 'love'?? She is best at maintaining a "presence" via anti-Social Media and maintaining her sponsorships.mandoist14-09-2026
- As soon as someone makes a statement like this we are all waiting for the inevitable outcome of the EXACT OPPOSITE!!! He’s got a lot of work to do if you’re both the fitness AND mental coach and your client loses her mind when she’s losing.DaveyWavey14-09-2026
- Endless intentional ball-bouncing is a ploy. Extended screaming in competition (but never, ever on the practice courts) is a ploy. Neither of these things are a "strategy". Bottom Line: WTA + ATP do not care. They consider these things free marketing and advertising issues.mandoist14-09-2026
