    Not true.

    She probably speaks from her own experience and that’s fair, but from an objective overall standpoint, you’d find a highlight online posted saying “Rublev breaks racquet!”, “Zverev goes crazy!”, “Djoko misses a smash and yells before smashing the racket!”, “Bublik doing Bublik things”. etc at least 3 times a month

    While if you go back starting this season I doubt you’d see even half of those highlights featuing women reacting angrily to missses and losses.

    Ask hardcore tennis fans to name “most likely played to react overly emotionally during or after a game”, I guarantee majority would say Kyrgios or Rublev or Bublik or whatever, and probably just less than 2% would say Iga or any other WTA player
