WTA Finals: WTA accepts blame after Pegula's jibe at Andreeva in practice

The WTA Tour says it accepts full responsibility for an episode during practice at the season-ending WTA Finals in Indian Wells, according to Sky Sports.

Mirra Andreeva was in conversation with her coach when Jessica Pegula described her as a diva who should be taken down a peg, Sky Sports reports.

The tour's statement puts the governing body at the centre of the row as the event goes on.
