2-time Grand Slam winner Garbine Muguruza had a lackluster 2022 so far. After losing in the first match at the Indian Wells, she is preparing for the tournament in Miami. Recently, she had a Q&A session with fans on social media. However, she didn’t seem very pleased with a particular question from a fan as she reacted to it.

Garbine Muguruza reacted to a fan question

After winning the WTA Finals at the end of 2021, the Spaniard hoped for a better start this year. However, things didn’t quite go according to her plan. Currently, the Spanish star is in Miami to play the Miami Open. During a recent Q&A session on Instagram, a fan said to her, “I’m tired to watching you lose, wake up Muguruza..”

“Ouch,” that was her initial reaction after reading the comment from an anonymous fan. Clearly, she didn’t like the comment about her current form that much. However, she gave a classy reply to the fan.

“Let me tell you, to win matches is damn hard and if you work hard, it’s gonna pay off at some point. So, we have to be patient and continue to work,” Muguruza replied. 

Can Muguruza turn things around in Miami?

The former world no.1, Muguruza, ended 2021 in great fashion, as she beat Anett Kontaveit in the WTA Finals. Previously, the Spaniard won the French Open and Wimbledon in 2016 and 2017, respectively. Many hoped to see the previous Muguruza back in 2022 after the WTA Finals. However, it has been a disappointing season for her so far. 

At the Australian Open, she lost in the second round to Alize Cornet. Although she reached the quarter-final at the Dubai Open, her performance was not up to the mark. At Indian Wells, she suffered a shocking loss to Alison Riske in her first match, as she lost the match by 6-0,3-6,1-6. 

Right now, the women’s draw is out for the Miami Open and no.7 seed, Muguruza will face a qualifier in her first match. It will be interesting to see whether she can make it far in the tournament.
