Haven't watched any of it yet, but a post-match argument between two females, one the burly black American Taylor Townsend and the other burly Latvian Jelena Ostapenko, is causing a stir. Ostapenko accused Townsend of poor etiquette on the court and said she has "no education." The exchange starts around 11:30 of these highlights:

They are really trying to make a push in tennis now aren't they?

The media is also heavily pushing the (toxic) feminist agenda. More and more people are referring to The Tennis Channel as The Women's Tennis Channel as it shows predominantly women's matches and of course many of the announcers and commentators are women and blacks.

Today's sports page, where I read about the encounter posted above, has as its main article on the tournament, "Gauff, Osaka to Clash," thus killing two birds with one stone. It's all about tomorrow's Gauff-Osaka match, and then goes on to cover the women's doubles, where 45 year old Venus Williams is playing. She's only been totally washed for over a decade now.

It's only at the end, literally the last paragraph of a decent sized article, that the men's singles are mentioned.

I don’t care for Townsend. It’s ok to give a “lets go!” and a fist pump after a big point. But she continually does it throughout the match.
