Rafael Font De Mora, the coach of world number 53, Peyton Stearns, is the subject of a WTA investigation for allegations of inappropriate behavior and inappropriate relationships with players in the past. The Athletic reported that two former players, including Pam Shriver, have filed complaints against Font De Mora. The investigation focuses on his relationship with Meghann Shaughnessy, which has been controversial, considering they got engaged when she was 19 years old and he was 25. Shriver emphasized the need for a serious approach in the fight against abuse in tennis. Font De Mora denies the allegations, while Stearns has defended him. The WTA stated that it takes such reports seriously and applies the appropriate rules.
