Last update: Jasmine Paolini was humiliated live by a sarcastic journalist after being eliminated again from Roland-Garros. His reaction left everyone out of breath: with a tight jaw, he whispered five words with his face full of anger, leaving millions of stunned and amazed spectators. The moment shocked the entire room!
Before the interview after the match broadcast live by the French chainSportlivetv, a journalist asked the tennis player as provocative as inappropriate:
“Don’t you think it is now clear that you are not up to the great stage?”
A phrase that immediately paralyzed the study and the public. The atmosphere tense. Everyone expected a diplomatic response, perhaps a forced smile or the classic “I will try again.” But Jasmine, visibly shocked and with her eyes fixed, kept calm. With a tight jaw, she looked at the journalist in the eye and whispered five words that made the walls of the study tremble:
A tense silence invaded the study. No one dared to interrupt that moment. Those present in the room were stunned, while in social networks the reactions exploded in a matter of minutes. In X (before Twitter), the label#PaolininisondeIt went viral in less than an hour.
Many users praised the serenity and inner strength that Jasmine demonstrated. “Those five words are worth more than a thousand interviews,” wrote a fan. Others highlighted the inappropriate of the question, describing it as free and unjustified attack against an athlete who proudly represents Italy in international tournaments.
Despite the elimination, Jasmine Paolini has demonstrated, once again, that she is a fighter on and off the court. This episode, instead of weakening it, could become the turning point to relaunch his career with even more determination.
Many already wonder how he will react on the court, perhaps in Wimbledon, where he will have the opportunity to change the story. But one thing is safe: that phrase, whispered with a tense face for anger and dignity, will remain in the collective memory of millions of spectators.
