Tennis player Yulia Putintseva was booed for her unprofessional treatment of a ball girl at the US Open. The Kazakhstani star was losing the first set and going 4-2 down in the second against Italy’s Jasmine Paolini when she blatantly ignored the young girl.
A video circulating on X (formerly known as Twitter) shows the girl attempting to pass a ball to Putintseva before her next serve, but the ball hits her torso and bounces away.
Putintseva also ignored the girl’s second attempt, letting the ball hit her feet and roll away as she stood still on the court.
