Leylah Fernandez has been vocal about dealing with online abuse on social media, revealing that she tries to ignore the naysayers and focuses on the love and support of those around her. The Canadian tennis star shot into fame with her phenomenal performance at the US Open in 2021, but she struggled to replicate that success in subsequent events. Despite criticism, Fernandez trusts in herself, her team, and the process of hard work. She also shared that she is balancing her tennis career and studies as she takes online business classes. When asked about her relationship status, she said that she is in a relationship with tennis. Fernandez recently participated in the Charleston Open where she suffered an early exit. The 20-year-old's next event is the Billie Jean King Cup Qualifiers, as Team Canada takes on Belgium in Vancouver. Though Fernandez has faced setbacks on the court and online, she remains determined to work hard and bounce back.
