Serena and Venus bring the ratings. Not Federer or Nadal. The Williams sisters.

Terrace House on Netflix!

First (very short) video teaser.

There’s something about Jennifer Hudson I just don’t connect with. I think she's talented, but there’s this building campaign to make her some kind of a national treasure, and she is just not deserving of that status.

Khachanov choked big time, but he’s 22 playing a clutch Nadal on a huge stage. I don’t want to overstate the importance of one match, but if he can build on that, look out. He’s very underrated in that NextGen conversation. Whew, Serena. That was masterful. Kanepi, then Pliskova/Barty, and then likely Sloane.

Thiem with the racquet smash.

Audrey DuBois Harris is showing out!

Lol! BET had this scheduled until 2 pm ET.

These speeches from the Franklin family are so personal and touching.

Lots of shade being thrown at Faith Hill’s performance. She was clearly very nervous and couldn’t hear herself over the choir.

What a processional!

Wozniacki out to Tsurenko. Her GS performance since winning Melbourne: R4 at the French, R2 at Wimbledon, and R2 at the USO today. LORD HAMERCY! Sharapova’s serve is DISASTROUS, like 7 or 8 double faults, and she’s still up 3-0 on Cirstea. An absolutely boring, garbage, unwatchable match.

Aw, Monfils suffered a wrist injury in the Nishikori match and had to retire. Shame. It was getting good. Kei gets Diego Schwartzman next. Kei is 2-0 in the h2h, but they’ve only played on clay (Buenos Aires and Madrid last year).

Herbert released his statement on Lahyani. His last line is telling: “When we players are making mistakes on court we are sanctioned.”

A McEnroe take is more often than not a bad take. He’ll always sympathize with the so-called bad boys.

Nick’s motto: Taylor Townsend just took the first set off Penko!

Lol so much drama this U.S. Open...Stan is not gonna be happy.

Wow.

It’s insane. And Kyrgios just broke Herbert as he was serving for the second set...
