But now, the 52-year-old Australian coach took to her Twitter account to slam the haters who persistently mocked the 19-year-old after her recent loss.

Stubbs wrote, “The crap I read on Twitter is 🤯! People commenting on Coco being this or that as well as other players. Like seriously, u people think you’re tough writing as an unknown loser who puts a player down but have never put themselves out there in these kinds of moments! 🤯 get a life!”

The 23-time Grand Slam Champion’s ex-coach questioned why people obsessed over Gauff’s losses on the tennis court. Along with that, she also criticized the haters for making harsh judgments about players without even knowing the pressure of professional tennis themselves.
