Commentators have to think fast, on their feet, it’s their job! As professionals they have to know their words need to reflect the situation at hand. Now one ESPN commentator is facing a serious backlash for words he used to describe Venus Williams during a match!
It happened during the Australian Open on the match between her and Stefanie Voegele.
ESPN’s Doug said:
“She misses a first serve and Venus is all over her. You see Venus move in (and) put the gorilla effect on. Charging,”
Fans are furious! Do you think this was bad? Or that the comparison is being taken out of hand?
