Pam Shriver criticized Alexander Zverev's comments at the 2023 French Open.
The German made a remark that Shriver criticized as "insensitive" after his victory in the quarterfinals of Roland Garros. The 21-time WTA champion and International Tennis Hall of Fame member did not approve of Zverev's words.
'Sascha' defeated Argentina's Tomas Etcheverry in four sets and secured a spot in the tournament's semifinals for the third consecutive season, becoming the first unseeded player to reach that stage since Marco Cecchinato in 2018.
