It wrote, "The world number one tennis player appeared to have had a great night as he was pictured exiting the bar — popular among LA's A-lister set — in the dark hours of the evening with a female companion." As the report started doing the rounds of social media, netizens went berserk and trolled the daily, which later made necessary changes on its website.
