Reply to Emma Raducanu bows out in second-round loss to Coco Gauff. by PrincessBananas85

Not really that surprising. Even if she was fit, Gauff is everything that Raducanu is, but with more power, consistency, and athleticism. Raducanu's game hasn't been much ever since her US Open, which the faster courts may have given a perception that she has more power than is actually there. And, she just can't stay healthy, for whatever reason. So, that's not helping her develop any sort of consistency.

The Aussie Open is has always been the fitness test. It's played during the Australian summer time, which can get brutal. That's why players like Agassi and Djokovic have racked up so many wins there. If you're consistent and fit, you have a terrific chance to go far at the AO. If you're not... ehh, gonna have a bad time.

Reply to comment by Jasader in Ivan Provorov refuses to wear Pride Night-themed warmup jersey Philadelphia Flyers | TSN by abunchofjerks

Lol, when people were getting arrested for wearing pride flags in Qatar there were dumbasses who were defending the Qatar police by saying that the people should know they are in a different country and to follow their rules and respect their culture. But, now we have the same thing happening here (but without any real penalty) and the same people are saying "well he is from Russia so it's ok"
