Last night at the Australian Open American Danielle Collins battled Destanee Aiava, who is an Aussie native. The home crowd was obviously pulling for Aiava and let Collins know with constant booing. It seems as if the booing actually helped Collins as she won the match in three sets. But as you can see in the clips below, she didn’t let the crowd get to her and eventually thanked them for helping her earn her “big fat paycheck”
