Tang Yu's previous interviews were also very funny and often discussed by foreign netizens because they were mostly conducted entirely in English.

So although there are reports about it in China, it just can't break into the mainstream.

However, with the rise of the internet in recent years, which allows for the real-time sharing of videos and news interviews from around the world, netizens are able to access information much faster than before.

Tang Yu's interview was initially translated into Chinese by fans before being reposted by marketing accounts.

That's when netizens and casual observers learned what Tang Yu had said in the interview.

"I used to think tennis was a very elegant sport, but after watching Sister Yu's interview, I realized it's so funny."

Sister Yu's photo, covered in mud, went viral. Even though she was completely covered in mud, she still looked stunning!

"Her facial features are secondary; what's important is Sister Yu's calm and collected face, which transformed her mud-covered face into a fashion editorial!"

"I went to the French Open after watching this interview, even though I don't understand the rules of tennis."

But Sister Yu played ball in the mud, calmly wiping the mud off her face with a towel; everyone thought her mentality was amazing.

"If Sister Yu's post-match interview was also so nonchalant, things wouldn't be so funny. The key is that Sister Yu's post-match interview was full of flaws."

So how did Sister Yu manage to keep from laughing during the competition, maintaining a calm and collected demeanor on the surface while secretly cursing inside?

Everyone was chatting and laughing, but a few sheepdogs started making sarcastic remarks.

"It's just a championship, why are you belittling the organizers to elevate yourself? That's disgusting, only domestic fans would tolerate that."

"Does she really think she's an international superstar? She has no professional ethics whatsoever. Which top international athlete would complain like this in an interview?"

"She's gotten arrogant after winning the championship? The organizers must have had their reasons for making those arrangements. If she complains like this, who will dare to invite her to compete in the future?"

People who consider Europe and America to be paradise couldn't stand Tang Yu's complaints about the organizers in the interview, revealing that Western competitions are also like a makeshift operation.

Two newspapers even ran headlines criticizing it.

"Profiting from the event while smearing the organizers! Tang Yu's 'big shot' temper needs to be curbed."

Is the French Open champion getting cocky? Tang Yu's sarcastic interview reveals her arrogance and rudeness.

This public opinion campaign instantly sparked a war of words between two groups.

Fans and ordinary netizens naturally felt that a bunch of sheepdogs were groveling to the West.

The sheepdog wondered what right Tang Yu had to be sarcastic towards the event organizers.

How could she stand up and criticize them? She should kneel down with them.

At this time, Tang Yu had already arrived in England after a few days of rest to prepare for the upcoming grass court competition.

After learning that her interview had sparked a wave of online criticism, Tang Yu rolled her eyes at the group of sheepdogs.

"The WTA didn't even think I offended them, but these people are kneeling perfectly."

After Tang Yu finished complaining, Zhang Ruoyun laughed beside her.

"In fact, the WTA likes your interview style because it can attract new viewers to tennis events and increase the popularity of tennis. They think you are a cash cow."

Indeed, Tang Yu's sudden emergence directly increased the popularity of tennis events in China several times over.

Many domestic companies followed suit and sponsored tennis events, which directly led to an increase in WTA revenue.

If Tang Yu were to announce her retirement now, the WTA president would be so frightened that he would immediately fly over to discuss management issues with her.

They will definitely say sincerely that they can change any problems.

After all, when she competed, a lot of fans from all over the world flew in to watch her compete.

"In order to promote tennis events, I went to talk to them and did a big-name interview."

After saying this, Zhang Ruoyun raised an eyebrow and smiled.

"You're going to quickly prove me wrong."

"Learned it from you."

Before Wimbledon, athletes train in the surrounding area for a few days to get into the right mindset for the tournament.

Tang Yu spent two days interviewing all three of the Big Three in men's tennis, and complained with them about the terrible weather of the past two years.

They're all from the same circle; Tang Yu has even filmed commercials with these people, so they're all quite familiar with each other.

After editing the interview video, Tang Yu handed it over to the three people's management teams for review.

After confirming that there were no problems, Tang Yu posted the interview videos of the three giants on Weibo and Twitter.

Of course, this wasn't a formal interview; it was just casual conversation during a tennis practice session, with everyone answering a few questions.

Finally, Tang Yu and I complained about the extreme weather of the past two years and the organizer's terrible response.

He and Nadal complained about the French Open's terrible drainage system, saying that playing tennis felt like playing shot put.

When I complained to Djokovic about the tornadoes in the United States, I felt that the organizers' arrangements were unreasonable and it was like murdering the athletes.

Then they complained with Federer about the Wimbledon dress code, and how many white outfits the two of them had prepared.

This also includes some memorable bad match experiences from the past few years.

After each interview, Tang Yu asked them questions.

"Are these things something we can say? Will the organizers kick us out of the competition because we said these things?"

Nadal's answer was very direct.

"Is telling the truth a crime? It is precisely because we love tennis that we bring up problems after they occur, so that they can be improved."

Djokovic's response was even more direct.

"If we don't fight back, they can make us play tennis in tornadoes just for broadcast fees! If speaking the truth is punished in this world, what fairness and justice is left in tennis? Our resistance is not about creating trouble, but about creating a better living environment for all professional tennis players!"

Federer responded with slightly more elegance.

"If complaining about being banned is the right thing to do, Wimbledon should have put my 2003 shorts in a museum long ago, since that was the real masterpiece of breaking the rules."

But to be honest, they need us more—otherwise, the headlines would be: Today's match results: no rain, no controversy, no fun.

The video sparked intense discussion immediately after it was posted.

Then, many people realized why Tang Yu posted this video.

Let me show you how Europeans and Americans themselves complain.

Then, Tang Yu posted a separate Weibo post.

"Real athletes compete standing up to win prize money; they don't kneel down to beg for food."

"Sister Yu is still as tough as ever. Have you all forgotten about the hair-dyed Yu from back then?"

She even dyed her hair green before the competition and told parents to reflect on their own behavior, saying that if their children can easily go astray, they should look for problems within themselves!

This statement prompted many netizens to ask curious questions.

"When did this happen? What is a hair dye jade?"

Fans edited together videos of Tang Yu dyeing her hair back then, and added her sarcastic remarks from an interview back then.

Back then, there were far fewer internet users than there are now, and smartphones hadn't even been released yet.

Therefore, Tang Yu's interviews are only known to a segment of viewers who follow the sports world.

Viewers who only watch the games during the Olympics have no idea that Tang Yu has this kind of personality.

So after this breakthrough, countless netizens realized that there are athletes with such sharp and outspoken personalities.

"After watching Sister Yu's previous interviews, I only have one feeling: she is so confident and domineering!"

"I was wondering how Sister Yu would handle this controversy. I never expected her to confront them directly on Weibo and call them beggars."

"Those sheepdogs were furious. They wanted to yell back, but they didn't dare to yell at Federer and Nadal. They could only twist their anger and curse Yu Jie for being too arrogant."

"I can only say that the insult was very apt; these people are like people begging on their knees."

"These sheepdogs can't stand that Chinese people can be tough and domineering abroad, and they think everyone should kneel down like them. If Sister Yu really stops playing tennis, the WTA will be in a panic!"

Those frogs in the well thought that Sister Yu was unknown and ignored abroad.

In fact, Yu Jie has fans all over the world, her matches always have packed attendance, and she consistently ranks in the top ten of international sports star lists.

At this point in the discussion, fans immediately started presenting data.

In the past two years, Tang Yu has been ranked the world's most commercially valuable female athlete on Forbes' list, with her income ranking first among women.

"The sheepdog thinks that Sister Yu is arrogant, but foreigners really like watching Sister Yu's interviews. American and British talk shows often use jokes from Sister Yu's interviews in their programs."

"When Sister Yu competes abroad, she always learns some local language to communicate with the audience."

Whether it's English, French, Spanish, or Arabic, Sister Yu knows a little bit of everything and always manages to chat with the audience in a witty and humorous way.

Do you think superstars only know how to play basketball? Superstars conquer audiences with their skill and charisma.

"A couple of years ago, many foreign media outlets criticized Yu Jie, but in recent years they have come to recognize her as a legend in women's tennis."

"There's a classic story still circulating among foreign journalists: if you want to experience the rapid reversal from indifference and disgust to crazy obsession, go watch a Tang Yu match—she can turn skeptics into fanatical supporters in an instant!"

Other circles have many complex rules, but the sports world has only one rule.

In competitive sports, everything depends on strength.

So after responding once, Tang Yu ignored those sarcastic media outlets.

No matter how much these people criticize him, in the end, the public will still focus on how many championships Tang Yu won.

Even if Tang Yu is truly arrogant, so what?

From an ordinary person's perspective, it's normal for geniuses to be a little arrogant.

Soon, the Wimbledon tournament began.

Because of the London Olympics this year, domestic audiences are paying close attention to Tang Yu's performance.

After all, they're all playing in the same stadium.

There wasn't any unusual weather this time, just frequent light rain, which made it easy to slip on the grass during the race.
