WTA is just too apathetic - Tennis fans slam the association for not promoting 2022 US Open women s doubles final
By
Parag Jain Modified 11 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Barbora Krejcikova, Katerina Siniakova to face Caty McNally, Taylor Townsend in doubles final The principal organizing body for women's professional tennis — the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) — recently came under fire for not doing enough to promote the upcoming doubles title clash at the 2022 US Open. Having reached the finals at Flushing Meadows for the first time, five-time Grand Slam doubles champions Barbora Krejcikova and Katerina Siniakova of the Czech Republic are aiming for their sixth title on Sunday.

The third-seeded team will square off against Caty McNally and Taylor Townsend of America for the title. If Krejcikova and Siniakova win, they will complete a career Grand Slam. Their previous five titles include two French Opens in 2018 and 2021, Wimbledon in 2018 and 2022, and the Australian Open earlier this year.

The in-form duo has already won two Majors this season in Australia and London. They had to withdraw from the French Open after Krejcikova tested positive for COVID before their first match.

Fans were seemingly unimpressed as they claimed that the governing body did not put as much effort into promoting the doubles final as they did for singles matches. "I understand nobody cares about doubles, there's no market, whatever you want, and I'm fine with that, but @WTA not posting a single tweet for Krejcikova and Siniakova who are making history (regardless of the outcome of the final) sounds a bit disrespectful to me," a fan tweeted.

The decision didn't go down well with tennis fans due to the fact that the state is among those that have banned women from getting abortions. The US Supreme Court reversed the '1973 Roe vs Wade judgment' in June, allowing all 50 states in the country to decide whether to ban abortion or not.
