Former American tennis stars John Isner and Tennys Sandgren slammed a reporter\u2019s line of questioning aimed at Amanda Anisimova on Thursday while she was at the Australian Open<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Anisimova was pressed<\/a> by a reporter to share her thoughts about the U.S. and playing under the American flag. She didn\u2019t take the bait from the reporter and he clarified what he meant in a follow-up ask.<\/p>\n

“In the context of the last year of everything that\u2019s been happening in the U.S., does that complicate that feeling at all?” the reporter asked.<\/p>\n

“I don\u2019t think that\u2019s relevant,” she fired back.<\/p>\n

Isner was among those who ripped the question on social media.<\/p>\n

“Popular opinion: Let\u2019s ask tennis questions to the players at a tennis tournament. This is so lame,” Isner wrote on X.<\/p>\n

Sandgren didn\u2019t mince words either.<\/p>\n

“Bug reporter,” he added. “Go write for the Economist if you have the chops. If not ask her how her backhand felt and move on.”<\/p>\n

Anisimova\u2019s answer was a stark contrast from what Coco Gauff said during the tournament earlier this week.<\/p>\n

Gauff was asked about her thoughts on the “state of the U.S.” one year into President\u00a0Donald Trump<\/a>\u2019s second term.<\/p>\n

“I hope forward that we can have a lot more peace in our country and more kindness in the way we speak to each other about different topics and things like that,” she said, via\u00a0The Tennis Letter<\/a>. “Obviously, I\u2019ve been pretty vocal about how I felt. At this point, I feel a bit fatigued talking about it just because of the fact that it is hard also being a Black woman in this country and having to experience things, even online, and seeing marginalized communities being affected. And knowing that I can only donate and speak out. I try my best to do that.<\/p>\n

“But, yeah, I hope that as time continues that we can reach a state that we\u2019re not currently in, and we keep moving forward. I posted the video of Martin Luther King and that was kind of saying, \u2018We must keep moving forward,\u2019 even as things may not be as calm as I\u2019d like it to be right now.”<\/p>\n
