Pegula's Tremendous Confession: "For me, receiving death threats is normal"

The other day, Caroline Garcia condemned the insults and threats she received after each loss. When asked about this, Jessica Pegula also mentioned the exposure that tennis players face on social media. “I don't even activate messages during tournaments. I don't let anyone send me messages. I feel bad for my grandparents, who go on my Instagram and see those messages. The person handling my social media contacted me one day because she was receiving death threats. That's completely normal for me. If you block them, they create new accounts. Instagram is worse than Twitter. It's a shame that we have to receive threats from stupid bettors,” commented the American.
