@lindaholmes @UnclearPod This was a great discussion!

@TennisPodcast 💯

@TennisPodcast @DavidLawTennis Can confirm. Hot even in the shade. Appears to have wilted Tommy Paul.

@TennisPodcast 🤦‍♀️ I just left that court and there was no announcement!!

@outspreadwings @TennisPodcast Had the same thought and it’s **so** disappointing from someone who could be the world no. 1 in a week! Maybe she’s trying to be funny with the crowd but it falls really flat and undercuts her impressive playing. SMH

@TennisPodcast That's twice she's been self-deprecating about women's tennis. It's disappointing. I want more "check me out" energy from the WTA players. Want someone to say "Some of you were slow to arrive. Now you've seen us I hope next time you'll be excited enough to get here early."

Let me get this straight. In order to be a fan of tennis in the United States, you have to have access to *checks notes* Tennis Channel, Tennis Channel+, ESPN, ESPN+, NBC, and Peacock? The lack of interest in tennis has nothing, NOTHING to do with best of five sets.

@TennisChannel I’m not able to watch the Sakkari match on the app — what’s up with that? Shows the Fernandez match on Simonne-Mathieu when I select Suzanne-Lenglen

@OpenCourt 😱

Andreescu v Raducanu first round in Miami. Can't make that up.

@Afro_Herper That was fun!! #FoundThatLizard

I thought this was a great challenge to reintroduce #FindThatLizard! I created this game to teach folks about lizards, conservation, & that Black women can be herpetologists. Can you find this Clark's spiny lizard? Let me know with #FoundThatLizard

And this final pandemic piece is a distilled shot of the argument I’ve been brewing for 3 yrs. This has been soul-crushing work. We constantly forfeited the chance to do better. But that chance still exists, and we can’t afford the luxury of nihilism. 6/ theatlantic.com/health/archive…

@TennisPodcast Federer got me into tennis and in the early years it’s true I watched him primarily, but in the last decade I’ve become a fan of the sport generally. (No small thanks to the pod!) I’m gonna miss him but there are so many others I’m excited to see! ❤️🎾

@TennisPodcast Nervous and excited and emotional!

I knew it was coming but it’s still so so sad. Thanks for so many moments of sheer joy over the last two decades. ❤️🎾

85% of people on Rikers Island are detained pre-trial, so besides being an absolutely horrendous thing to say, this is just inaccurate.

Every single media outlet should be talking about the fact that Republicans are introducing a bill to ban abortion nationwide today. It was never about “states’ rights.” If they win in November they will try to ban abortion in all 50 states.

@stu_fraser Oddly no drying action happening in Ashe. Maybe they are waiting on some large machinery??

Don't worry, though. They've got six ball kids out with towels to dry the court surface on Armstrong. Players still out there waiting on their courtside chairs.

Bungles all over the place at Flushing Meadows. Failed to shut the roofs when the rain started falling initially. And a delay in letting the players go off court on Ashe when it's abundantly clear that play isn't going to resume in the next few minutes because the court is soaked

@TennisPodcast “Looking for queues”?! …sorry, I’ll see myself out…😬
