I don't think she'll invite me to dinner," Sakkari reflects on her altercation with Putintseva
Maria Sakkari defeated Yulia Putintseva this Sunday in the first round of the Bad Homburg tournament.
The two players had a tense handshake, with the Greek player criticizing the Kazakh for not looking at her during the exchange.
Sakkari ended their dispute by saying, "Nobody likes you." In her post-match on-court interview, she addressed the incident.
"I don't think she'll invite me to dinner, but I don't care. I have very good friends, so I'll go dine with them.
I'll stop there and say I respect her as a player, but that's it.
