Thank you @naomiosaka. Last night for my daughter’s 5th grade current events homework she wrote about Naomi’s US Open title. The best part... we spent more time talking about why she wore the mask, what it means and how we can be part of the change!!

Ok @FCTennisInside been a while since i posted, but I'll play along... Once nominated you have 24 hours to respond or donate to local charity. Nominate 4 people & post a pic of you working at an event... I pass to: @DaveSholler @ChaseAltieri @HolterMedia @BelleMclemore

@ByJoeFleming best of luck in your new adventures Joe! Thanks for all your help along the way. Always a pleasure to work with!!

Apologies, but I am about to unload upon you the dreaded "some personal news." After nearly three decades in the newspaper business, the last 21 at USA TODAY, it's time for a change. Thrilling, occasionally maddening, always fulfilling. I have seen a lot.

@bgtennisnation this is the first time in 80 years, (1937-38), that there will be 4 different major champions in back-to-back seasons.

wonder when the last time 8 different winners in 8 slams has happened in the women’s @Kfish_WTA @tennistweetscom

@bgtennisnation @usopen -Patty Schynder is the oldest player to reach the main draw via qualifying at a Grand Slam in the Open Era -Schnyder will be the oldest player to compete at US Open since 2014 (Date, who was a direct entry)

wow 😮 Patty Schnyder 39 years yong quallies @usopen wonder if that is oldest in open era on women’s side @Kfish_WTA

With #ATP World No. 1 @RafaelNadal and #WTA No.1 @Simona_Halep winning @rolandgarros titles, it's the 1st time both No. 1s won #RolandGarros in the same year since 1992 with Jim Courier and Monica Seles. Assist from @Kfish_WTA.

@TWMasterAce @WTA_insider The week of July 4, 2011: No.31 Bethanie Mattek-Sands No.34 Venus Williams No.66 Christina McHale --- No.175 Serena Williams (15th ranked American)

@WTA_insider When BMS was top American where was she ranked and Williams Sisters @Kfish_WTA

Either Sloane Stephens or Madison Keys will leave #RG18 as the top-ranked American. Since Jan 29, 2007, only 3 players been the top-ranked American - Serena, Venus, & Mattek-Sands. Either Serena (519) or Venus (67) have been top-ranked American for 586 of the last 592 weeks.

@jokelley_tennis Bethanie Mattek-Sands was top-ranked American for six weeks from July 4, 2011 to August 14, 2011.

Champions Corner: Karolina Pliskova keeps pounding in Stuttgart wtainsider.libsyn.com/champions-corn…

@bgtennisnation after doing some research, it appears that the Stuttgart main draw cutoff of No.29 is the highest cut-off at a WTA event

@Kfish_WTA 29 the cutoff at Stuttgart is 29 and 10 to be seeded,has there been a cutoff that low before in 28 draw

World No.1 @CaroWozniacki joined the @WTA_insider Podcast after her phenomenal run to the @AustralianOpen title! 🎧 wtatenn.is/qgzO0E

@bgtennisnation correct. She will return to No.1 on Monday, Jan 29, exactly six years to the day from her last day at No.1

With her 3R win over Giorgi, Ashleigh Barty has a chance to become the youngest Australian to ever be ranked in the @WTA Top 15, pending other results. #AusOpen

#WTA Ranking Watch: With the loss Muguruza will drop to No.4. Could be lower if -Pliskova SF -Ostapenko Final -Garcia wins title twitter.com/WTA_insider/st…

With her win over Johanna Konta, American Bernarda Pera is the first lucky loser to reach #AusOpen 3R since Sandra Kleinova in 1997.
