Jessica Pegula reveals ‘disturbing’ information after French public losses
Tennis Stars Jessica Pegula Social media users are being called up to threaten the athletes with information based on their performance.
Pegula, 31, shared a clue via her Instagram story on Wednesday, June 4, which included screenshots of some messages she received after her fourth round defeat at the French Open. She noted that most of these comments came from sports bettors.
“These [bettors] Pegula wrote: “I don’t allow DMS, trying to remember when to close my comments in the game, but they always find ways to my schedule. These things never really bothered me, but does any other sport involve our level? I’d love to know because it seems to be [predominantly] tennis? ? It’s really unsettling. ”
Screenshots show commentators calling her a “trash can”, “low-grade” and waste of oxygen. One user also shared an image that reads “You die”.
“You deliberately sold this game,” another commenter wrote. “Can’t wait until karma puts obstacles on you. Hope your first child will be born at rest.”
Pegula added that she is not the only tennis professional to receive such news.
“Everyone is dealing with it. Too bad,” she wrote. “These are just small pieces. I was told my family should have cancer regularly and die from people. Absolutely crazy.”
“I’m glad again that these things have never really attracted me (can’t be crazy), but that doesn’t mean it won’t attract other players or make it not bad.” “When fans become athletes, get stronger, etc.
Pegula also noted that avoiding social media alone is not an option for professional athletes.
She concluded: “Don’t say “not to say “this” “, it’s inevitable because our careers and sponsors are based on posting on social media. These are my comments about DMS and have closed the comments.”

Pegula’s post was the same day that Houston police revealed that sports shots responsible for sending threatening information to Houston Astros pitchers have been identified Lance McCullers Jr. He had a tough game against the Cincinnati Reds earlier this year.
A spokesman for the department told ESPN that the man was intoxicated while dispatching the threat and did not file a lawsuit.
McCullers said the positions included the threat of “finding my children and murdering them.”
