- They need to stop having the USO finals weekend compete with NFL opening weekend. Tennis sucks at scheduling!
smurphie92413-09-2024 - Anti-Social media has no guardrails... and the Lowest Common Denominators are free to demean and denounce anyone, any time; and obviously do so on a daily basis. Why? Because thus far, given the lack of oversight (much less control) over these public immorally bankrupt entities, there is little-to-no possibility of legal repercussion.

Unless this woman is running for office she doesn't get -- nor deserve -- the opportunity to literally reinvent what she plainly said the first time. She's no longer a tennis player, does not represent the sport, and should therefor refrain from meaningless drivel and snottyass remarks about her former colleagues.mandoist11-09-2024
- How is it not clear to pro tennis Elitists in charge that flooding the sport with more and more tournaments is NOT the answer? Such decisions made through PURE GREED disguised as "offering more up & coming players a chance to compete". This sport is, at the very foundation, a Business. Any corporate entity should know by now that introducing too many 'franchises' to a limited market is counterproductive to say the very least? And let us not forget the Top Athletes cannot be everywhere week-to-week no matter how much money the tourneys throw at them. Therefor you get a situation such as the US Open missing out on the Best-of-the-Best. Simple economics -- and definitely common sense -- seems to be lost on the WTA/ATP 'experts' in the offices.mandoist11-09-2024
- And NCAA basketball players? Football players? Am I mistaken or are these male athletes not subject to the same restraints? Also... where does this money go now??mandoist11-09-2024
