Bookworm and longtime tennis fanatic. Will watch almost any WTA match. I sometimes enjoy an ATP match (but that's rarer all the time).

"I'm supposed to be a tough guy," Curtis confided. "I can hold your hand," the mayor offered "What happens if I faint?" Sliwa asked. "I've got you," Mamdani assured him, grabbing his hand as Sliwa received his flu shot. abc7ny.com/post/nyc-may...

Mayor Mamdani holds hands with one-time rival Curtis Sliwa to get flu shot
An apparent bromance has continued to blossom for the one-time political rivals.

I thought Goffin retired? I see he's playing (and losing) at a challenger today.

Elena Rybakina letting the girl from the US Open lemonade stand hold the trophy was wholesome Elena “Do you want to hold it?" "Really?" Elena “Yes of course” "Guys I just won"😂 Elena “Are you playing tennis?" "Yeah" Elena “So hopefully in 10, 15 years"🥹

Russian and Belarusian players can't play under their flags. Yet, Russian Maria Sharapova is here to present the U.S. Open trophy to fellow Russian Rybakina, who plays for Kazakhstan. Make it make sense.

I absolutely LOVE this. Christian Bale spent roughly 17 years fighting to make this happen. This week, his foster-care village opened in Palmdale, California: 12 homes built specifically to help keep siblings together when they enter foster care.

The international chess Federation banned trans women from playing women's chess. CHESS. It's not about fairness. The fairness argument is intended to radicalize people into more violent forms of transphobia.

Taylor Townsend & Katerina Siniakova won the doubles title at the US Open over Ashlyn Krueger & Robin Montgomery 5-7, 6-0, 6-2. Taylor just got the career grand slam in doubles. Katerina became the 1st doubles champion in the open era to win 2 career grand slams with 2 different partners. #tennis

The WTA is matching prize money at Masters and 500s bc tournaments don't think the product the women provide deserves equal pay. So the ATP and the ITF can go f@$k themselves. The hellscape that is the USO deserves to lose profits Glad fans are demonstrating their disinterest in That Man.
