Corentin Moutet expressed anger following Danielle Collins’ public disclosure of his alleged unsuccessful attempts at flirtation. Collins, serving as a commentator at the Miami Open due to injury, shifted her focus from tennis analysis to personal interactions over the weekend.
Despite being sidelined with an injury, the 32-year-old American engaged in microphone work for the Tennis Channel at the Miami event. On Sunday, her commentary on French player Moutet created a buzz.
Moutet, ranked No.33 globally, defeated Tomas Machac on Saturday, but it was the pre-match incidents that caught Collins’ attention. During a segment on the Tennis Channel, she detailed the situation involving Moutet’s behavior towards her.
In response to presenter Steve Weissman’s prompt, Collins narrated the encounter, highlighting Moutet’s words and actions towards her. She humorously mentioned his need for a stronger serve if he intended to flirt successfully.
When asked about Moutet’s subsequent communication, Collins shared that he reached out after his match victory, emphasizing the importance of strong tennis skills over personal interactions. Despite Moutet’s follow-up messages, Collins remained skeptical about any potential romantic interest.
Moutet, who stands at 5’11, was set to face top-ranked Jannik Sinner but took a moment to address Collins’ account of the incident, expressing his displeasure with her comments on television and clarifying their social media interactions.
