@dld83377: Jessica Pegula Reportedly Heard Criticizing Mirra Andreeva and Coco Gauff in Video Before WTA Finals Matchup A video from the WTA Finals is getting attention. In it, Jessica Pegula appears to be criticizing two fellow players. The clip is a livestream circulating on X. It shows Pegula, 32, speaking with her coach on a court in Indian Wells, California, after practice on Wednesday, Nov. 4. In the video, Pegula calls Conchita Martínez, who coaches 19-year-old Mirra Andreeva, “nice.” But she adds that she has “lost a little respect for her.” She is then heard calling Andreeva a “diva” who “needs to be humbled” and “put in her place.” She also accuses Martínez of egging on Andreeva’s behavior. Pegula describes a moment where a player is up four-zero but is upset and hitting balls at her coach. She says that would be “disrespectful to the other person.” Later, she says that if Andreeva had Coco Gauff’s “mentality,” she would “be better than Coco.” The timing adds another layer. Pegula is set to face Gauff on Sunday, Nov. 8, at the WTA Finals. PEOPLE reached out to representatives for Pegula, Gauff, Andreeva and the WTA for comment. No responses were reported. Should players be judged by what they say in private moments that get recorded? #Jessica #Coco #Player #Sports #Tennis
