The WTA has apologized to players after a live microphone captured Jessica Pegula criticizing fellow player Mirra Andreeva during a conversation with her coach.
Pegula referred to Andreeva as a "diva" in the livestreamed exchange, which was broadcast without the players' knowledge that microphones were active.
The WTA acknowledged it failed to inform players that microphones were live, leading to the incident. The organization said it will review its communication protocols to prevent similar occurrences.
