@hsieh_n_wong So glad you made it there, but so sad this is the match you got 😭💀. What a mess. Glad I got to see you on the big screen though! Go check for the screen grab. I think it’s toward the end of the second set.
@PaulFMcNamee@hsieh_n_wong There are exceptions to this and this counts as one lol. I adore Su-wei, and any fan of hers knows that even if they’d gone up to each other, neither would have shaked, or they’d do that thing where they stick their hands near each other but don’t actually touch 🤏
@TennisPig It’s not really doubles fans (though there’s overlap), it’s just Su-wei fans, Taiwanese people, and older tennis fans. Su-wei was a fan favorite in singles, and her popularity from that still carries to doubles because she’s fun, funny, exciting, and we want her to succeed.
@HanlonWalsh Hsieh's family have accused the Chans of manipulating the Taiwan tennis federation to favor them commercially and structurally (things like national team representation).
@hsieh_n_wong Lmfao the best partner for this particular situation. Nobody loves an excuse to hate more than Penko. Bara understood shitting on your own nation’s players also. She and Su-wei were absolutely not losing to the Czech kids either.
