US Open 2017 winner Sloane Stevens has revealed that she was stung by a bee during a match against Poland’s Magdalena Frech in Parma, Italy.
Stevens (4th seed) defeated French 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 at the start of the tournament.
“I got stung by a bee at 4-4 in the third set and it was an unpleasant experience. 0 points out of 10 – do not recommend, – the 29-year-old athlete wrote on her Twitter page.
In the next round of the tournament, Stevens will play with the winner of the confrontation Danka Kovinic (Montenegro) – Oceane Dodin (France).
