(EMAILWIRE.COM, February 16, 2013 ) San Francisco, CA -- Sloane Stephens made a splash when she scored the biggest win of her career by toppling Serena Williams at the Australian Open quarterfinals. The first thing the young star did was crack open her phone, as is so customary amongst people of her age group.
The 19 year-old looked over the income messages from mom and those watching her at hom.
“I couldn’t really do anything because the messages were coming in, so I couldn’t read anything,” she explained, pulling out her phones at her press conference and counting 233 unread items.
“I’m still trying to figure that out because I thought it was free to receive text messages, but someone told me otherwise,” she said, grinning from ear to ear. “So I’m still trying to figure out what I’m going to do, because otherwise my phone bill is going to be crazy and my mom is going to be like, ‘Oh my God, your phone bill!’”
Stephens was noticably excited as she spoke to her grandparents, who watched her play through their computer, which Stephens notes they refer to as “the machine”.
Stephens did not only win applause and notoriety from the win, but also $526,793 for the win and reaching the semifinals of the Open. Stephens notes hat her money will not be used for frivolous items, however. “Oh no,” she said. “It’s going straight to the bank,” said the world’s 25th-ranked player. She will, however, buy a yet-to-be decided item as well as a pair of Jimmy Choos she’s promised herself.
Stephens was absolutely glowing as her Twitter following rose to 35,000 following the match. He had previously had 17,000 leading into it. Her number has now crept up to 40,000 thank to the messages from the likes of athletic greats such as Shaquille O'Neal, who told her “When you defeat a legend, you become a legend. Keep it going.”
“John Legend tweeted me, Dirk [Nowitzki] tweeted me. I mean, I’m just excited. I want John Legend to sing at my wedding,” said the likeable teen whose late father John Stephens was a former New England Patriots running back.
