As a sport, tennis is collectively taking a stance against racial inequality and social injustice that once again has been thrust to the forefront in the United States. The USTA, ATP Tour, and WTA have decided to recognise this moment in time by pausing tournament play at the Western & Southern Open on Thursday, August 27. Play will resume on Friday, August 28.

I've heard rumors some players were debating sitting out but I doubt it'll be the whole field. I could see it pushed back a day worst case.

Osaka already said police were committing genocide on black people. Bold and ignorant take.

Roberto Bautista-Agut +4.5 (-102) against Djoker. Extra day of rest will do him good.

This guy is a known gun owner, known troublemaker, reaches into a car, and doesn't obey orders to police, and ESPN running around saying "he was shot for no reason". I saw somewhere yesterday it's likely Floyd died of a Fentanyl overdose too. This is what happens when culture gives an entire race a victim mentality from birth. Anything bad that ever happens must be because they're black. What the media is doing is creating more racial tension and making things worse, not better. This isn't how you make people get along, this is how you create division. As usual the left is just operating on emotion, faulty logic, and is not thinking about the consequences of their actions.

The dumbest part is whoever decide to boycott their games being allowed to play the games again. That doesn't really serve a purpose or show that you care because you aren't really boycotting anything, you do care about the win and pending money for said game.

If Osaka wants to boycott her game in protest, then fine, but then she's out of the tournament. It's should have been a walkover for the opponent. None of this can play the next day bullcrap we're being fed.

Same as the Bucks against Orlando. Boycott it sure, but the win should have gone to Orlando. I do understand they were offered the W and declined but it should have never gone to that. It was the Bucks decision, therefore they should have faced the ramifications of forfeiting. And given the loss without any hesitation.

It's what athletes in the past have done, not sure why the present is any different.

The whole thing a joke , hopefully they are playing today.

doing that just will result in a greater conflict (in NBA other teams could join the boicot), is a wiser decision to let the players make their little strike.

and i think the athletes do that now to show their hate to Trump, cause the elections are near.

For today i took Bautista-Agut + 4,5 @ 1.95 cause i think it wont be so easy to Djoko to beat him.

Osaka a joke

A poser now

Did you watch the video?, the guy was walking disarmed with 3 cops around him, it was absolutely disproportionate to shoot him 7 times to stop him.
