iga is not dull, not at all. she is so fascinating..
da this comment was about Rybakina, not Iga…
Anyways, I agree with the part in bold. Rybakina is so bland. In order to draw a big audience into tennis you need to be more than just good at tennis. You need to also bit good with the media and Rybakina is absolutely boring in interviews. Look at her press conferences, 3 sentences maximum per question. And that is if she even answers them and doesn‘t complain about the boring questions.
Look at the lack of attention after the Wimbledon win, it would be the same if she ever gets to no1.
I know it was about Rybakina, my post was about iga, ironically.
Elena is quiet girl, yes, but iga is introvert too, weird and boring as hell. She has big PR agency behind her who is working to make her look more feminine, more interesting. Those meetings with american actors,in IW or Paris, out of nowhere are pathetic,lame and desperate. Nobody cared about Iga after her first slam win, only poles. It was quite big fuss about it because she was first women to win any slam. But still she wasn't then and she still isn't popular here. Even look at her instagram.And I agree with someone here that
bots are hired to post on social media.
And she has been greedy since forever , she didn't want to return money from contract with Lexus. Even they had trial.
Bots are the current reality of PR agencies. This isn't a some inside info these days.
Both Rybakina and Swiatek has not so interesting personalities. But I’m glad that Elena or Aryna were not chosen by such agencies, because they are not arrogant and are not so eager to decide who can play tennis and who can’t, they aren't throwing shades, etc.
And both, Elena and Arina can play night matches. Sabalenka in Madrid played all matches at night, except the one she lost. But Swiatek always plays at noon or afternoon at her own request (!), because as a rule, she loses night matches. So, she can choose when she will play.
Other girls don't have that privilege. Then someone here asks when exactly she didn't show respect for her opponents. When she did is better question.
Other girls also aren‘t world number one for more than 100 weeks and have 4 slam titles to their name
Like it or not but if you are this dominant you get extra rights that the scrubs don‘t have. Is that fair? No, but so is life.
Nadal, Federer, djokovic, Serena, Maria all had extra privileges over other players because the big names bring in the crowds. And if you have earned it, why not use it?
Also, everyone would make use of these privileges if they are offered to them, don‘t kid yourselves that your faves wouldn’t.
