I watched this match, and NOT TO BE NEGATIVE, but I wouldn’t be surprised if this is the start of a losing streak. I mean, at the tournament before this, he broke his racket, and then he had to come from a set down for the first time in his career. It honestly feels like this could lead to not just a losing streak, but maybe even a small hiatus. I really hope I’m wrong, though.

it's illegal to make this men sad🥹🤏🏽🤍

Carlos Alcaraz vs Van de Zandschulp US Open 2024

I’m no lawyer or anything, but it really bothers me that the tennis community made a bigger deal about doping scandals than about serious allegations like Zverev’s. It just doesn’t sit right with me that something like doping gets more attention and outrage than accusations of domestic violence.

if us open 2024 is committed to taking out top seeds, i need it to take out the rat

I watched the muchova-osaka match and heard Chrissie's commentary on muchova's playing style and in my opinion while I understand the sentiment she was going for her delivery was suspect at best. We still live in a world where "you hit like a girl", "you play like a girl" are still widely used in the English lexicon making statements like Chrissie's very harmful as it reinforces the stereotype that women can't have an aggressive playing style with awesome volleys and out of this world net play. It is rhetoric like this that is also used to demonise players of colour with wrongfully empowered sports journalists making caricatures of female players of color. I'm so glad that it was addressed so quickly by Ons and it honestly makes me love her even more as she is a shining example of what Chrissie would describe as playing like a man, I rarely see female players hit tweeners and Ons became that representation that I so desperately needed, Aryna is also another example seeing her practice tweeners inspired me and that's what the game is all about. Creating innovative new ways to play the game so I implore the tennis community to continue to shun such verbiage and for the commentators to be more mindful of how they phrase their comments.

The last American to win this tournament 20 years ago was—' STOP!!! The last American to win the US Open was Coco Gauff. LAST YEAR. If you're about to say 'the last American to win the US Open' and end it with Andy Roddick, YOU'RE WRONG. Stop minimizing women’s achievements.
