Serbian Tennis Player Dejana Radanovic found herself in the middle of a controversy after she made distasteful remarks against India.

Radanovic was in India for 3 weeks and player 3 ITF tournaments but it seemed that she didn't like her stay.

"I didn’t like India – the country. I didn’t like the food, traffic, hygiene (worms in the food, yellow pillows and dirty bed linen in the hotel, not knowing how to use roundabout etc.)" the World No.245 wrote on her Instagram story.

"If you come to my country, Serbia, and you don’t like all those same things, that means you are a racist??? What the hell that has to do with racism?!" She added.

In another Instagram story in Munich, Germany, Dejana Radanovic wrote, "Hello civilization. Only those who have experienced something like India for 3 weeks can understand the feeling."

Sharing another picture of traffic, she wrote, "But I gotta admit that they are amazing drivers and traffic was interesting sometimes. You may never know how your day will look like, what is going to happen and everyone is honking all the time, like in traffic rush game."

Radanovic participated in 3 W50 events in Pune, Bengaluru and Indore. The 27-year-old played in the ongoing Mumbai Open WTA $125K, but she was knocked out of the tournament in the qualifier round, losing to India's Vaidehi Chaudhary.
