WTA Stars Hilariously Mock Tennis Stereotypes in Viral 'Of Course' Video

WTA Stars Join Viral 'Of Course' Trend, Hilariously Mocking Tennis Stereotypes

The WTA has joined the viral "of course" trend, with top players Victoria Azarenka, Coco Gauff, Zheng Qinwen, and Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova participating in a hilarious video that pokes fun at common stereotypes and quirks of life on tour.

The video, which has gone viral on social media, features the players mocking some of the most commonly-held complaints of life on tour. Doubles player Giuliana Olmos jokes, "We're tennis players, of course we don't know when we play until the night before," while Azarenka jokes about playing copious amounts of the card game Uno during rain delays.

The players also poke fun at the quirks that come with playing tennis generally. "We're tennis players, of course we have crazy tanlines," Pavlyuchenkova says, while Emma Navarro adds: "We're tennis players, of course we say sorry after a net cord, but we're not really that sorry..."

Australian Open finalist Zheng even pokes fun at the solo nature of an individual sport. "We're tennis players, of course we have crazy thoughts during the match and during practice that you'll never know," the 21-year-old closes the video by saying.

The video has been a hit with the WTA's social media audience, who flocked to the comments to make their own jokes about what it's like to be a fan of the sport.

"We're tennis fans, of course we love these kind of videos," one wrote, while another added: "We're tennis fans, of course we almost always have a heart attack watching very close matches."

The WTA's "of course" video is a fun and lighthearted way to celebrate the unique aspects of life on tour and the camaraderie among the players. It also shows that the WTA is not afraid to poke fun at itself, which is a refreshing change from the often-serious nature of professional sports.
