Following a contentious WNBA game between the Indiana Fever and Connecticut Sun, tennis legend Chris Evert criticized the lack of sportsmanship displayed by players. Indiana's Caitlin Clark was poked in the eye and shoved, leading to multiple technical and flagrant fouls and ejections. Evert, along with columnist Christine Brennan, highlighted the negative impact of such incidents on the sport's image and called for improved officiating and sportsmanship. The incident follows similar aggressive plays against Clark in previous games.
