Come on, people, give Sloane some love. Stop criticizing her for trivial reasons. She is doing her best, she earned more than what some of us will ever earn in our lifetime, AND she's still playing and traveling the world. Go AL you're the best weatherman EVER, God bless you!!
Only 60 women have won grand slams in the Open Era..that’s less than 1% of the top 100..yet alone an even more micro fraction of all tennis pros-> along with endorsements and partnerships over the years Sloane Stephens is an icon. Haters go find a ditch.
i literally love her. hope she can have a good rest of the year!!
Love watching her when she finally shows excitement . She's such a quiet player but gets the job done. Go Sloane!!@
the owner of my tennis summer camp Kamau Murray taught Sloane to win the U.S Open. Congrats Sloane and thans to Kamau Murray for being a wonderful investor, coach, tennis player, father, buisness owner, etc!
Some of us never played a sport in our life, much less to pick up a tennis racket... And we're trying to put down someone instead of empowering up and encouraging, very sad.
Great interview guys. Love Sloane. Give us another major Sloane you have easy power and speed for days. Pulling for you. ✊️
Sloane is shining 🙌🏾
Go SLOANE!
Love Sloane! 💚💚💚
LOVE ME SOME SLOAN STEPHENS ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️SHE IS AN AMAZING PLAYER AND MOM💯💯💯🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾♥️♥️♥️
Continue and improving your tennis, I enjoy watching you play. Blessings to you and your family ❤
She is pretty. Love her dimples
Do people not do research anymore she has 8 titles now with the most recent win in Rouen
LOVE Sloane
Sloane Stephens and Madison Keys have done a good job managing their personal/professional tennis life, and I can admire that. But as a tennis fan, I can’t help but think how much better they could’ve been if they were more committed to the sport. Then again, I’m only judging from what I can observe as I compare them to other athletes in the sport-I have no idea what kind of personal challenges they had to face.
How do you know they are not fully committed?
@@ddhh1270 Well, for argument sake let’s compare Madison and Sloane to a couple of top players with similar talents. Madison can serve and hit the ball as big (probably bigger) as Rybakina, yet despite being similar in size, Elena moves and defends much better, serves more consistently and almost never loses to lesser players as Madison does. Stephens can play and defend almost as good as Coco Gauff (watch the 2018 French Open Final), and has a much better forehand, yet she’s almost never seeded because her ranking is so low. In your personal opinion, who do you think is more committed to the sport, Rybakina and Coco or Madison and Sloane? Who’s putting the time and effort (commitment) to be better than the rest and who’s trying to balance life and work better?
As good as Sloane can be she is mid and lackluster. Comparing her to Venus is wild! Literally comparing a molehill to a mountain!
She’s always losing!
@@Nike5221 Only the top 3 or 4 can expect to win tourneys week in and out.
who even did that. And no grand slam + Miami winner is mid - she's incredibly gifted. Some of you are so miserable
@@ilovetati91 she shows up when she chooses. If you are watching tennis for her you are often left disappointed by lackluster performances. 🤷🏾♂️ I said what I said
Oh yeah that's what I was talking about the tennis Sloane Stephens!
She’s looking stunning, looks so different from on court, her personality is almost like a different person
i LOOOOOOOVE SLOANE!!!
Sloane beautiful
With their relative WTA rankings as they are Sloan Stephens at 48 should have little problem advancing to the next round at Eastbourne in 2024 against Emma Raducanu at 165 in their 1st round match.
Best wishes Sloane.
Such a beautiful woman
Bee keeping WOW
31 means she's got to get to it to having children of her own. That's got to be tough when you are a professional athlete. Aways strange to see WTA women retiring at the top of their game.
Good player, but not an icon.
I feel it’s funny that players (not just Sloane) always say they play for this and that - but never mention money.
And the money is GOOD!
After winning the US Open in 2017, she was asked if she would like to have a similar experience again and she responded (iirc): "Of course girl, did you see the check that that lady gave me?". Of course it was meant to be funny but she's actually one of the few players being honest about it, so I'm not sure she falls under this category.
@@Rebel_Leader7 Only for players in the top 100 or so - below that it's a terrible career.
Is it necessary for you to hear them saying they’re doing for the money ???
@@ddhh1270 which is what all those who turn pro hope to become - top 100 with decent proceeds from the game. Though not all make it.
Not sure what this is about. Do the presenters follow tennis lol i doubt it
Did he really refer to Sloane as an Icon??!!??
Sloane is not a “decorated” tennis star. She won ONE major title. I love my girl, but let’s not pretend that she’s accomplished more than she has.
Winning a slam is an accomplishment. Stop.
Why do these people want to discuss their sacred business to the world?
Venus icon ( 7 ) grandslam titles, slone regular player ( 1 ) grandslam title 😂🤣😅 i don't think slone will ever win another slam.
Think of all she's accomplished and earned already. She doesn't need to match anybody to be a star.
I don’t get it
I like that she’s not a diva…like Serena and Gauff.
She peaked out and turned off some fans bringing her politics on the court.
Her talking about personal experience of racist abuse is too much for you is it?
Icon. No. Not even close. Lost total and complete respect for her when she accused Pavlyychenko of calling a medical timeout at an inappropriate time, then acting like a bully about it. Yes, I said 'bully" and I mean it. Then she kept instigating more by poking by saying "Are we good?" as if she wasn't the instigator. And anyone who wants to call me out for this comment, feel free, but I said what I said.
😂😂😂
Pavylychev whatever tf her name is, was the bully and the aggressor. She purposely tried to hit Sloan with the ball at her stomach. You big back Karens always wanna play victim.
@@tardeuxnoir that’s such BS. First of all Sloan became the b*tch 3 games before that so-called attempted hit. Secondly, that so-called attempted stomach shot was right at the right shin area of Sloan, nowhere near her stomach. AND, the shot right prior was Sloan hitting it right at Pavlyuchenko. So, try again.
You're misrepresenting that interaction.
@@GhostofGerulaitis no
This is stupid. She is self-entitled and a true reflection of her generation.
Its not fair that a man doesnt have to think? Seems like her husband didnt think when he committed himself to her. Then again, he is a product of thier generation as well, so there.
🐻🐻🐻🐻
Sloane has "That" Carmel Beauty.
Her delivery is fast and coherent.
Interesting.
And Very Very Smooth and Graceful
On The Court. 🎾🏆🤎
Good for her lending herself to becoming a spokesperson for this🤍
