‘This Is Not Hypersensitivity’ – Hall of Famer Chris Evert Gets Lambasted for Criticizing Coco Gauff’s Game at US Open 2022

Legendary American tennis player Chris Evert has been doing commentary for a long time, and fans love her expert analysis during matches. However, at the ongoing US Open, she faced heavy criticism regarding her commentary during the quarter-final match between Coco Gauff and Caroline Garcia.

A sports journalist named Chuck Modi pointed out that Evert seemed unenthusiastic whenever Gauff wins a point or plays a great shot. On the other hand, she criticizes the young American player for making errors in the match.

Earlier, the journalist took to Twitter and wrote, “Chris Evert is as bad at calling game for Coco Gauff as she is Serena. Coco makes great shot. Silence. Coco makes mistake. She dwells on it. This is not hypersensitivity. This can be quantified across the whole match.”

Later, he provides a few videos to prove his point. During one point, the 18-year-old American played an amazing backhand; however, Evert stayed silent during that point. A few points later, Gauff made a double fault, and immediately, Evert pointed out that Garcia psyched Gauff out.

In another video, he showed that Evert remained silent while Gauff hit an ace. Then, at the next point, she criticizes the American player for watching her serve and not getting back to a return position. Later, many fans also criticized the former American player for the same behavior, and one fan even brought up her open letter to Serena Williams in 2006, where she criticized the 23-time Grand Slam champion’s off-court activities.

When Evert apologized for her open letter to Serena Williams

Back in 2006, Evert wrote an open letter to Serena where she slammed Serena’s various off-court projects. Notably, Serena was going through a number of injuries at that time, and her performance in Grand Slam tournaments had dipped.

However, Serena shocked everyone at the 2007 Australian Open, as she won the title while being ranked 81 in the WTA rankings. After that, she went on to win many Grand Slam titles, which made Evert retract her words from the open letter.

Evert said, “It’s opened my eyes not to be judgmental and to each his own. Whatever makes you happy. By having other interests, maybe you won’t get burned out so quickly.”

Safe to say, Serena proved Evert wrong, as she has won 23 Grand Slam titles in her career and retired as one of the greatest tennis players in history.
