Tiafoe teamed up with fellow American Jock Sock as they spoiled the much anticipated ‘FeDal’ partnership, also the last match of the Swiss prior to retirement.
But there were those who stood by Tiafoe in the social media debate, among them former doubles World No. 1 turned commentator Rennae Stubbs.
Joining the exchange between a Twitter user and singles No. 38 and former doubles No. 89 Reilly Opelka, Stubbs said that telling pro tennis players like herself and Opelka “what is acceptable” was “hilarious.”
Stubbs further chimed in that the social media user’s comments have proved that he has never played tennis, especially doubles, at a high level.
Stubbs added that they were talking to pro tennis players and that he should “keep that in mind” when he starts telling them how to play as they “might know a thing or two more about playing.”
