Bad Quote by Jessica Pegula

“I think people definitely root more for the underdog, and so I've never really felt like people are totally rooting for my story. I don't mean that in a bad way. It's just like, that's what I feel. And I don't care - it doesn't affect me and that's fine.” quote by Jessica Pegula
