You're not wrong nelslus. I just posted a shorter version of what Jazz said about where the pressure on Raducanu is coming from in the tournament thread.

The universal "they" need to leave her alone.

Met Gala photos include several tennis players so check the Entertainment Thread for them, but there was some news revealed that I'll post here as well.

Congrats to them, but also the dress I found to be a perfect/hilarious tribute to Karl Lagerfeld

Putting these here, less about the fashion, more about the people, their main photos are already captured with the other Met Gala photos. Nice photo with Roger and Mirka, also a photo with Roger and Serena if you scroll, and a few others, including one with Patrick Mahomes for any NFL fans.






And Matteo, scroll through and there's a photo with Roger.

I really haven't been paying attention to the NBA this season. I was confused as to how anyone could attend a basketball game in New York during the play-offs. Who would have had the Knicks, and the Leafs making the second round of the play-offs in the same year. :lol:

I kid you not. This is today's tennis controversy.



Azarenka has already chimed in



And Feli has clapped back



Today is Cinco de Mayo so it doesn't matter what time it is.



My daughter agrees it's misogyny by the way.
