As she gave a lesson to three of the world’s top-10 tennis players yesterday, she rubbished the negative story. Halep, Ostapenko and Konta, plus world No 4 Karolina Pliskova who arrived yesterday afternoon, are in Hua Hin for the Intercontinental World Tennis Championship this weekend. It was especially tough for two-time French Open finalist Halep, who admitted she barely spends any time in the kitchen. “It’s a memorable experience and my first time to have a cooking lesson with a Michelin-starred chef,” said the 26-year-old. Konta and Halep play at 6.30pm today, followed by the showdown between Ostapenko and the 2016 US Open finalist Karolina Pliskova.
