Roland Garros Sabalenka Saville

Aryna Sabalenka made headlines following her defeat in the Roland-Garros final and her comments directed at Coco Gauff. The player briefly addressed the situation on her social media before flying to Greece for a short vacation.

In the latest episode of the podcast produced by the Australian Open, world No. 129 Daria Saville defended Sabalenka:

Publicité

"There was a lot of talk about this on social media, many opinions. I think she was deeply affected and didn’t have time to process. I’ve been in situations where I was frustrated after a match and had to go straight to a press conference.

She was very emotional on the court after the match and just expressed how she felt. I don’t think she could have seen things differently at that moment. She was genuinely hurt. I don’t know if rewatching the match would have changed her perspective.

Seville should not excuse poor sportsmanship. Sabalenka was downright awful.

Professional athletes are expected to act like professionals. And a big part of that is not being a poor sport. I fully understand Sabalenka's emotions, you're the number one player in the world and you just gifted your opponent the trophy because you choked big time ... who wouldn't be upset with their self. But that's beside the point. The expectation, especially of a professional, is to be gracious in defeat. Oh, and nobody likes a sore loser ... and sponsors want to pay you based on the number of fans you draw. So if it helps, think about it in terms of money.

I propose the following changes to the rules:

1...a walķover will not be a loss. We have no control of player's health. If he or she is entered in a contest we expect them to play.

2...an incomplete match is not a loss. If a player forfeits we pick another match if there are more to choose.

3...this also applies if TT cancels a match. TT will not take hours to decide an outcome.

How about leavin...

It's a shame that so many matches are being canceled. TT ,you are destroying your game ,and thereby killing your app. I don't know how many matches others have had canceled , but I'm at 3 and it's only thursday.

As a long time player and lover of this game , I don't know how much of this I can tolerate. For example I waited hours last night for you to confirm my win and post my points. Every ot...

This week I have used all my formulas and best guesses to try to achieve the high score jimandlori958 set in our last competition. I am two games short because of cancelations and I need all wins to get there.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Grenier and Hsu at the Kobe tournament? The match was played to completion and on time.

Grenier def Ysu 6-2 , 6-2 at Kobe today and the TT canceled the match.

2nd for me this week.

An impressive win.. Congrats to our winner this week, jimandlori958 and with a score that could not be caught or matched. I don't remember a 56 in a while with our group. Nice to see everyone using the 2 point predictions. Can't win without 'em.

Son of a gun, pow. You going for the 3peat? Do it, but I'm chasing and so is Jimandlori. lol

POWWOW , Congratulations you did it again and by slim percentage points. Keep it going....
