‘That Ain’t Me’ – 22YO American Peyton Stearns Left Completely Bemused Over Fan’s Massive Blunder

The 22-year-old American tennis sensation, Peyton Stearns had a stunning victory over Mirra Andreeva at the Dubai Duty-Free Tennis Championships a few days ago. However, her run was cut short by Marketa Vondrousova, after suffering a narrow defeat against the reigning Wimbledon champion. Recently, she took to social media and dropped a hilarious reaction to a fan confusing Taylah Preston for her.

Hours ago, one of the fans on Twitter shared a picture of Taylah Preston on his handle. Preston is an Australian tennis star, who looks similar to Stearns. While sharing Preston’s picture, the fan wrote Peyton Stearns’ name in the caption. This confusion led to Stearns trolling the fan for his blunder.

One of the fans thought that it was a deliberate mistake, saying, “Maybe he was just trying to get your attention? Like, “Hey, Peyton Stearns. Look at this picture of Taylah Preston”

On the other hand, one Twitter user exercised caution, and commented, “I would never make that mistake.”

Stearns has a power-packed game that has caught the attention of the tennis world. She is tipped to become the next big thing in American tennis and even got a shoutout from a renowned personality.

Stearns invites praise with her game style

During the Tennis Channel Inside-In podcast, the show host, Mitch Michals, talked about budding American players on the tour. During that conversation, he mentioned Stearns, a former NCAA champion, and heaped praise on her.

Michals said, “And I love watching Peyton Stearns play because it’d be to steal a phrase from another sport, like I’m a big hockey fan as well. She’s got some jam out there. She’s always writing. She’s passionate. And I would just like that approach. I think that’s going to serve her well, as she continues to improve.”

With all eyes on her, Stearns has a big season ahead of her. However, she’ll have to maintain her consistency if she has to challenge the top players in the world and carve a niche for herself in her career.
