Andre Agassi, Open, 2009
i think being a tennis player would drive the average person insane more than any other sport because you're so alone out there and all you can do is talk to yourself while you're fighting a physical war
tbh thank god they let players speak to their coaches now
It was unfortunate to see Naomi lose but seeing her post after the match was truly inspiring and it makes me think that we can all learn to be kinder to ourselves and follow her newfound approach.

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.
