On the other hand, Jelena Ostapenko has strongly denied the accusations of racism.

Tennis star Jelena Ostapenko has been accused of making racist remarks against her black American opponent Taylor Townsend in the second round of the US Open.

According to details, the 28-year-old Jelena, who suffered a surprise defeat in the match, is known for her bad temper.

Townsend, the world number one in doubles, said that according to my opponent I have no education or class. In fact, that is far from the truth. People who lose get upset and say bad things.
