US Open: Ostapenko Issues Apology For 'no Class, No Education' Comment Towards Townsend

By IANS News August 31, 2025 • 11:18 AM View: 141

Goodbye New York: Jelena Ostapenko has issued an apology for her "no class" and "no education" comments towards Taylor Townsend during a heated US Open row.

Ostapenko has accused Townsend of having "no education and no class" in a fiery post-match exchange at Flushing Meadows after losing to the American 7-5 6-1 in the second round.

Tension between the pair escalated after a net cord went in Townsend's favour during a 7-5, 6-1 second-round win - and 25th seed Ostapenko accused her of not apologising.
