ARYNA SABALENKA CRITICS ‘NEED TO EAT POOP RIGHT NOW’ SAYS ANDY RODDICK, CALLS HER MOST CONSISTENT, BANKABLE PLAYER ON EARTH RIGHT NOW

Andy Roddick lavished praise on Aryna Sabalenka for her performance at the 2024 Australian Open as the former World No.1 was utterly dominant in making it back-to-back in Melbourne. She successfully defended her title by defeating Zheng Qinwen in the final and did not drop a single set.

 

Roddick spoke on his opening episode of his podcast, ‘Served with Andy Roddick’ and shushed the doubters that disparaged the Belarusian especially in relation to her serve and admitted himself that he had doubts but the way she has got over it needs marvelling at.

.”Like we still see Zverev, who’s battled with it and he’ll throw in a double fault where he’s all. He’s been fine for 2 hours, and then there’s 2 doubles, but they missed by 5 feet. We haven’t had that. That thing from Sabalenka, you know, in a long time.”

“And so to get over those mental hurdles to become what she’s become, all of us that criticized her need to eat poop right now because she has. Absolutely come through it and been amazing. It is a testament to mental fortitude and work. It didn’t happen by accident. She absolutely worked at it and deserves these successes.”

 

“Swiatek feels like the safest player, but you look back at the results, & now I don’t know that that’s true. 6 Major Semifinals in a row for Sabalenka. She is always there. I let past… pic.twitter.com/awRPBE5brG
