US Open: Tennis player humiliates ball girl
Scandal in New York: Kazakh tennis player Yulia Putintseva downright humiliated a ball girl in the third round of the US Open.
Putintseva made negative headlines during her two-set defeat against the Italian Jasmine Paolini. A ball girl threw a yellow felt ball to the 29-year-old tennis player. But Putintseva simply let it bounce off her stomach. She also ignored the young girl's second ball - you can see it here in the video:
A completely inexplicable action - the poor ball girl felt all of Putintseva's frustration. The athlete only caught the third ball. She then collected the balls she had previously thrown.
"What a bad role model!"
Putintseva's strange behavior caused quite a stir. "Thank God Paolini beat her, she needs some lessons in humility," wrote one angry user online. Another commented: "What a bad role model!"
