Didn’t find the Zverev thing funny at all tbh (NOT DEFENDING DVEREV) - just can we get men the fuck out when we’re talking about WTA PLS & THX!

Collins "hated"... ohh, can't be? :eek:

Don't forget to put the microphone under her mouth again so she can continue desperately convincing everyone around how ekhm... "authentic" and "herself" she is... 🤭

And all those guys who voted surely live in the basement and pay her bills with every single sign of unsympathy for this "iconic queen".

The only question here is - does she belong to the class of "good players" because of her last win over top 50 player in July last year? Or just due to her "kiss my ass" gesture? (so iconic, remember that)

Raducanu is not an average player she has won a GS Good players win GSs

I agree with Zverev, idk who is more hated than him.

Raducanu's career has absolutely zero credibility besides those 2 weeks in September 2021. No finals, a top 10 win here and there (which even started happening just recently) against players who are out of form or early in the tournament. Nothing really to put her above the likes of Amanmuradova or Krunic. So yeah average is the fitting category. 🤷‍♂️

Emma in the average player section :tears:

Whatever you think of Emma, good or bad, one thing she is not is average - the most miraculous slam win in the open era; the unfeasible number of coaches; being followed by the press and filmed getting onto the no 345 bus; the wild cards. Emma is unique! ;)

Zverev? great? how do you define great, good or average?

How reddit is:

Great: wins like 1 WTA 1000 title, (or in this case ATP) and maybe a grand slam or two.

Good: wins average titles, in top 100 and maybeeee wins a grand slam.

Average: average person. rarely a title, and maybeeee a grand slam but then get injuries and takes a break from tennis for 3 years.

This makes no sense. First of all, yes there is a recency bias. Raducanu makes sense, she was kind of lucky with her draw but still impressive. also all those injuries and coaching changes. totally agree on 2ga being great. ZVEREV? he won no grand slams, deserves to be hated, but is like a svitolina but a tad bit better. won 2 ATP finals and some WTA 1000s. that sorta makes sense, but wtf is he doing in WTA? I get that this is tennis forum, (tf) not women's tennis forum (wtf, interesting) but this title is

She has what? What defines this "fanbase"?
The bunch of people that she loudly speaks not to care about at all, because "they live in a basement" in her opinion? The people who she insults, feeling entitled to do so, because she earns more than any average person and thinks it gives her a right to treat people like trash?
