Collins has always been open about Quincy. She previously mentioned how Quincy shows the signs of a true gentleman. This American WTA pro commented- “Quincy is the classic Velcro dog: if she sees me a meter away, she can’t stand it and comes back close to me. He is adorable. He is a sophisticated gentleman, I call him Mr. Q. He is a little spoiled, but with a great personality.”

Nevertheless, Danielle Collins’s message for her dog Quincy post-match at the Charleston Open presented the stress of the tennis players to stay away from their pets. Since Collins already decided to take permanent retirement after this season, her tennis tournaments have become extra special for fans to witness her brilliance in the sport.
