#TSRClearTheAir: #JelenaOstapenko is trying to clean things up after some messy words at the US Open. As we previously reported after losing to #TaylorTownsend on Wednesday, Ostapenko allegedly told her she had “no class” and “no education.” Townsend said the comments came after an intense back-and-forth when she didn’t apologize for a net cord. ___________________________________
The remarks quickly sparked backlash, with Coco Gauff and Naomi Osaka stepping in to defend Townsend. Osaka even called it “one of the worst things you can say to a Black tennis player in a majority white sport.” SWIPE to read Ostapenko’s apology. ✍🏾#TSRStaffAS 📷:(gettyimages )
