The American Sloane Stephens did not talk in the jargon to describe his relationship with his compatriot Serena Williams.

In an interview with ESPN the Magazine to be published Friday, Stephens portrayed almost World No. 1 on the WTA circuit like a spiteful, explaining that Serena didn’t talk to her again since the face to face at the Australian Open “she did not say anything, not hello, not look at me since this match in Australia, “she says in the interview, of which excerpts were released on the website of Sports Illustrated.

“Before” continued the World No. 17, “she said all those nice things about me and now she does not follow me anymore on Twitter. That says a lot. People think she is funny, but it’s not the reality.” Sloane goes so far as to question the altruism of the younger of the Williams sisters ” When you are the mentor of someone, you talk to him, you help him, you take care of him. Is that so? No.” The young American (20 years) does she live badly this situation? Since this tussle and her semifinal in Melbourne, she who is compared to Serena Williams hanged fire in tournaments.
