Although the Australian Open is in full swing right now, women’s doubles legend Pam Shriver certainly isn’t in the mood to follow the Grand Slam tournament. The sixty-year-old (62 years old) is Donna Vekic’s trainer, but she is currently living in a Californian hotel, several days after having had to leave her home in Los Angeles, affected by the fires. When she left, the ex-champion had time to take and store her numerous trophies in her car. However, she announced this Saturday on X (formerly Twitter) that she had been the victim of a theft.
“My son and I are at the police station to report that our car was stolen from the hotel parking lot, where we have been staying since the fires started,” she wrote. This was the car where my most important trophies were located. They were stored there until it was safe for us to return home. »
“It’s really sad in many ways that when people are at their lowest and in the most difficult times, people do things like this,” Shriver said to ESPN. Third player in the world in 1984, the American has won 21 singles titles. But it was in doubles that she became a Tennis legend with 21 Grand Slam tournaments won as well as an Olympic title obtained in Seoul in 1988.
