Fendr removes abusive, sexist, and hateful comments from your Instagram in real time — before your audience sees them and before you have to deal with them.
Sign-up takes two minutes. No card needed.
Tennis players live much of their professional lives in public. The tour schedule is relentless, the scrutiny is constant, and social media is part of how players maintain their connection with fans between tournaments. It's also where the abuse arrives.
For women players the scrutiny is distinct — comments about appearance and body that have nothing to do with the tennis, and sexualised abuse that arrives regardless of performance. For players who have spoken about mental health or anything beyond their sport, the targeting becomes more deliberate. For players from ethnic minority backgrounds, racial abuse adds another layer.
Most tennis players have been told the same things: ignore it, report it, take a break. None of that stops it — and staying off social media isn't a solution, it's giving something up you've earned.
By the time a comment is reported and reviewed it has already been live for hours — already seen, already liked. Reporting it to Instagram rarely works: 70% of reported hate speech stays up. (Appeals Centre Europe, 2026) The governing bodies have made welfare commitments, but the tools to protect players on their personal accounts haven't kept pace.
Fendr is proactive. It removes hate comments before they go live — before your audience sees them, before they can spread, before you have to decide what to do with them.
A hate comment left visible on your post doesn't just affect you. It signals to everyone who visits your profile that this space is unmoderated — and that more hate is welcome. Research into online behaviour consistently shows that visible hate shapes the environment and produces more of it, not less.
Removing abusive comments in real time doesn't just protect you from one comment. It changes what your comment section communicates to the thousands of people who see it.
