Stubbs on the recent outbursts of players at Indian Wells: "We need to stop hitting balls that end up outside the stadium"

In the latest episode of her podcast, Rennae Stubbs spoke about the Indian Wells tournament, particularly addressing Mirra Andreeva's frustration in the final, where she hit a ball into the stands during the first set against Aryna Sabalenka.

A display of temper that the former world No. 1 in doubles did not appreciate, as she would like to see sanctions against players:

"We saw Mirra get angry. She hit a ball towards the stands, and during the trophy ceremony, she said, 'I'm sorry for the way I behaved.'

I don't like seeing that. I don't like seeing balls being hit like that. The same goes for Iga (Swiatek), I didn't like the gesture, even though she apologized. […]

We need to stop hitting balls that end up outside the stadium. The authorities need to establish rules regarding this.

If you send a ball into the crowd or something like that, you lose a game or at least receive a hefty fine. That's the only way to stop this. There's too much ambiguity."
