Why?
She's super popular with everyone I've talked to.
Although there was some controversy where she didn't want to talk to reporters after matches, as she's expected to as a player.
Only while she's winning... They'll turn on her as soon as that no longer looks like it will occur regularly, a la Andy Murray in the UK, I guarantee it.
That's not her fault though?
Playing shit because you're too immature and fragile to handle the pressure and fame..? How is that possibly not her fault, lol...
Based.
That "catch the players on the way to the locker room" that replaced the "harass them while they're IN the locker room" (which was bad enough) is utter bullshit. Of course they sound like morons, and basically just puke the same lines every single time, it seems (and I don't even watch sports regularly, but it seems like they've been NPCing for as long as I've come across the ends of football games that ran too long). But of course, they're going to skip as soon as they're done changing ... how about the "journos" just analyze the game their fucking selves, and maybe arrange to have a designated team spokesman come talk after the game if the "adrenaline" bullshit is so important?
Dude, it's part of professional tennis, and it damn well comes with the remit, if you are earning fucking $4 million dollars minimum per grand slam...
It's how the thing works, and she should just suck it up like everyone else. If you don't play the game, INCLUDING the media circus that goes with it, you don't get paid, simple as that. That absolutely does not change just because some oddball young "starlet" no longer wants to play along. Sorry, but no. Everyone else, including those with much less exposure and experience, has to put up with it, so she does too. Simple.
Who would? Fuck the press.
"Although there was some controversy where she didn't want to talk to reporters after matches, as she's expected to as a player."
I heard about that, was rather childish for someone who earns millions.
