Made me cry. Love seeing these young ladies crush it.

I disagree there are such things as objective metrics and facts. No sane person can argue joe montana or peyton manning isnt a top 5 quarterback, thats not an opinion its a fact, same for lebron or magic, the point is this is thecoli sports takes has no credence

Of course, but that still doesn't stop biases from coming into play. Those type of sports takes happen not just on The Coli but in general. You only notice it more on The Coli because you're a member here.

Hell, if you ask some fans, they'll tell you that they could do a lot of the things that can athlete can do even if they know it's complete bullshyt. Hence pros vs joes concept.

Why hasn’t there been a black male grand slam winner?

Arthur Ashe won 3 grand slams. Joakim Noah's father is the last Black man to win in 1983

But it's the Venus and Serena Williams effect. Their dominance inspired Naomi, Coco, and Sloan Stevens to believe they can win

I bet if there was a dominant Black male Tennis player in the in the 90s and 2000s, there would probably be more Black males who decided to not try to make the NBA, NFL, MLB, etc and play Tennis instead

You famous breh !!!!

TALK YO SHYT YOUNG COCO!

This is what INTENTIONAL PARENTING looks like!

Parents who planned and have the time and resources to pour into their children’s development! They can be an academic, artistic or athletic success- sometimes TWO or all THREE! But it will result in successful, driven offspring!

If you have children, these should be their heroes.

I've been noticing how all these successful black female tennis players all had their pops in their lives.

The father is the most important figure in a child's life from 12 to early 20s

Arthur Robert Ashe Jr.

"He won three Grand Slam titles in singles and two in doubles. Ashe was the first Black player selected to the United States Davis Cup team, and the only Black man ever to win the singles titles at Wimbledon, the US Open, and the Australian Open. He retired in 1980."

You have access to a computer. It would not have taken much to just ask that question on Google.

Thank you for that I didn’t actually know that

I know :Noah: ‘s dad played tennis but I didn’t know how good he was

I never one said that I would wife her. What I said is that I found her attractive.

You also posted in this in the wrong forum to support your point as it's chalked full of PAWG lovers.

The only female sport that makes players money is tennis really…and maybe golf/olympic events. So it attracts the best female black athletes

The best black male athletes busy getting money in the more popular sports

Tennis isn't cool to brehs to PLAY. Most of us who do care for tennis are causals who only pay attention to the sport when elite Black Women tennis players play.


Last time I watched the U.S Open I stopped watching as soon as Serena got eliminated Didn't even know there was another sista coming up to take her place
