The engagements and the sport have been collaborated with the bookmaker which continues to bring more people into unhealthy gambling which should not be portrayed in such a manner,” she posted on Instagram.
“The days of advertising associated with cigarette trademarks are way gone. But look what it is, we endorse here bookmakers who are to a greater extent destroying some lives of individuals that I am sure needs no explanation. I am not against them, I am simply saying that how do you tackle those issues?” According to Reuters.
“But perhaps we should not be promoting those. In addition, if such a person would hypothetically want to speak such a persons these things to me directly in a public forum outside, that person would likely have been arrest. So why do we have the freedom to do that in the internet? Should we not reconsider about Anonymous online?”
Garcia said such things were concerning for athletes, especially for children. Winning them is often of great emotional importance and any loss may leave them emotionally crushed.
Other tennis players, including the World No.1s Iga Swiatek and Madison Kewis who praised her for coming out on the topic, also sided with her view.

Now defending U.S. Open champion coco goff Also said that sometimes she would take blocking abusive accounts on social media for 30 minutes only to find out that new people would open new accounts. Abuse is low when she already has to sort who her friend is, and to even out her already twisted head.
“You could have a great day, and the next thing you know, somebody would just tell you, oh, go kill yourself. Rogero’s like, okay, thank you.“ Sure, the world is getting complicate.
Hopefully the artificial intelligence stuff will come in handy in a couple of years time.
