She would have made a much better porn star than tennis player.

this guy (I think it's Gary Richardson?) is awful - like Alan Partridge but he takes himself seriously!

That was over the line!

I don't understand some comments on here. It is not the interviewer's job to show sensitivity to her, it’s his job to ask the hard hitting questions that the world wants to know the answers to. The truth hurts, and I think his questions hit a serious nerve with Anna, who reacted very poorly. She could have just put a brave face on things for the two minute interview: instead she turned to her management(?) for help and acted like a spoiled brat. Very unprofessional of her.

cool chick

This is a tough job of being an athlete. When you are performing poor your commitment to your work will be questioned. I really don't think the question was bad. SHe just needs to be a bit more professional and answer the question candidly.

She should have found the balls to tell him to eff off basically but it wouldn't go down well

I disagree, she came across reasonably well and the interviewer was a tad insensitive initially moving to flustered. She was an above average tennis player, aside from being top ten - we in the UK wd go into meltdown if we had a female player with a similar ranking- winning grand slam doubles takes talent and ability. All that aside, she appears to have grown in to an articulate woman of some substance.
The interviewer was a dipshit. She was right to be annoyed and they're lucky she didn't just walk off.

She put him in his place - I mean the BBC at times really does come across as arrogant. The tennis coverage can be a joke. Just look at how they hype up Murray into something he is clearly not. He is a world class player but simply thus far is not in the class of Nadal/Federer.
