What s going in your head - Paula Badosa confronts fan who asked her to quit tennis after having earlier predicted that the Spaniard would rise to be World No 1

By Subhashish Majumdar Modified 28 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Paula Badosa confronts fan who asked her to quit tennis Paula Badosa has been going through a lean phase in her career after a string of early exits since retiring midway through her first-round match at the Canadian Open. Badosa failed to get past the second round at the Cincinnati Masters and the US Open before falling to Qinwen Zheng in Tokyo. In an interesting scenario, the Spaniard responded to a social media user who asked her to quit the game by posting an earlier comment by the same individual who had predicted that she would reach the World No. 1 spot. "What's going on in your head?," the World No. 3 asked after a flip-flop from the fan who had turned into a naysayer. The congratulatory message from the fan read as below "It was clear to me from the beginning that you were going to be the champion and also No. 1 in the future. Congratulations Paula," the user messaged (translated from Spanish) Following a dramatic change of stance, the same user sent Badosa a disparaging message asking her to quit playing tennis. "Stop playing tennis, please," the user said. Badosa herself was distraught after her recent loss to Qinwen Zheng in the first round of the Japan Open as was evident from her tweet.
