A report from Last Word on Sports alleges that the WTA secretly broadcast private conversations of its players during tournament play. The claim surfaced alongside coverage of a rain delay at the Montreal tournament on August 2, 2025, where Jessica Bouzas Maneiro of Spain faced Lin Zhu of China in fourth-round action at IGA Stadium.
The match was halted due to weather, with the WTA logo visible on the centre court net during the delay. Photographer Eric Bolte captured the scene for Imagn Images. The original story, authored by Steen Kirby Jack Beatnik, was published on November 6, 2026, and runs approximately five minutes in reading time.
Details regarding how the alleged broadcasts occurred, which players were affected, or the WTA's response were not provided in the available source material.
