A rebuttal from the USTA on Genie's lawsuit:
Quote:
The USTA dismissed Bouchard’s claims of lost earnings resulting from her fall as “entirely speculative and uncertain.” The USTA’s response said Bouchard refused offers of medical attention on the night of her fall, and cited her recent social media activity as inconsistent with her claims of continuing impairment from the fall.

Quote:
The USTA denied that it had a duty to provide any warning to Bouchard and said that she “knowingly and voluntarily assumed all risks of injury inherent in and associated with the actions involved.”

The fallout (no pun intend) will be interesting.
