4 weeks agoTaylor Townsend responds after heated US Open clash with Jelena Ostapenko | amNewYork
Taylor Townsend said she believes she handled a heated exchange with Jelena Ostapenko gracefully after the Latvian accused her of having no class and no education following Townsend's upset victory at the US Open on Wednesday. Townsend won her second-round clash in straight-sets against the Number 25 seed, winning 7-5, 6-1 against the 2017 French Open champion. Ostapenko, however, angrily confronted Townsend on-court after the match, with Townsend stating that the Latvian had told her that she had no class and no education.
