Sloane’s slay
Sloane Stephens might have reached her first French Open final, but afterwards she was clearly unhappy about social media comments made about her performance. After winning the US Open last year, she suffered eight consecutive losses on the tour. Prompting some to compare her performance in America to elsewhere is the world.
“You guys are my biggest haters,” she said, pointing to certain members of the media.
“Can I just state for the record that all of you guys in here were tweeting that I had a losing record anywhere except for the United States.
“So I think I have done very well to make the finals of the French Open. So if any of you want to tweet that, I would be very happy, give you guys a like, a retweet or something.
“Because you seem to only want to say, ‘she’s 0 and 8 in the other countries, and blah, blah, blah’. Yeah, it’s you and you and a lot of you (pointing to different members of the media).”
Stephens now has a win-loss record of 21-9 on the tour this year.
