And using the full opportunity to take a dig at his critics he stated, “Haha so after all this, all the media, journalism saying how bad I am for the sport, disrespecting the game & just a pure villain, I am going to be the number 1 episode on Netflix… to grow our fan base, basically trying to put tennis on the map again.” 

He continued in yet another tweet. He stated unapologetically, “And essentially putting more money in everyone’s pockets that’s involved with tennis, you all look really ridiculous now your apology should be as loud as your disrespect was.”

He knows he has not been everyone’s favorite this year, even after having an astounding run on the court.
