America’s Danielle Collins is known for her on-court intensity and passionate displays, which sometimes manifest as angry outbursts. Be it replying to the boos and jeers from the hostile crowd or getting into a heated exchange with her opponents, ‘Danimal’ always makes sure she is in the thick of all actions! Some admire her fearless attitude, while others become her strongest critics in this. Last year, in an interview, American legend Andy Roddick spoke about Collins’ vibe and on-court aggression.
He said, “It’s like you don’t have to be a diehard tennis fan to understand her vibe, to understand that there’s like this primal aggression inside of this. You know, awesome, you know, woman just taking cuts and everything.” Taking this aggression to a further level, Danielle Collins was recently spotted smashing her racket after failing to secure a point against Coco Gauff in the R64 match at the Canadian Open.
Coco Gauff had then secured the first set by 7-5, and in the second set it was well poised at 1-1. So, this angry outburst from Collins could well describe how the match has turned out so far.
