The stage is all set to pick up a winner from the all-American clash at the Philippe-Chatrier, and guess what? Madison Keys has secured the first set by 7-6(2), but Coco Gauff is giving a tough fight in the second set. This is their sixth meeting on the Tour, and Keys has already won three of their previous encounters against the youngster. Gauff is entering this tournament following her impressive final runs in Madrid and Rome. While speaking of her opponent in this epic QF clash, Keys said, “Obviously, Coco is more dominant on clay, I would say it’s probably her best surface, so it will be a great challenge. For me, it’s about trying to attack but knowing that with her ability to cover the court, I’ll have to win each point many times before it’s over.” However, other than this heavy voltage clash, tennis legend Chris Evert’s commentary has now become the talk of the town on Wednesday. But why?
Well, several fans have now come out in numbers to take a jibe at Evert for constantly speaking during this nail-biting clash. What are they saying, though?
One of the fans tweeted, “Please help with a stream where I don’t need to listen to Evert. I’m done.”
Another one commented, “Does Chris Evert ever shut up??? I get they’re commentators but even mid rally she’s chatting #RolandGarros.”
While a few of them said, “Please break her to win the set so Evert can stop talking about you like you’re some bum.”
Others said, “the way chris evert just talks through the whole match is so funny.”
Some of them took a jibe at the tennis legend, saying, “Chris Evert is the most unbearable commentator, the dull boring tone & that god awful accent And just like Rio she just doesn’t ever shut up for a second.”
