Also, no Eastern athletes or countries will ever get cheers from us because people in this country blindly accept the East as enemy. I’d also say that depending where you are, crowds can tend to cheer for every white athlete or a black athlete or vice versa. This is Country is in such deep shit currently that politics and social conversations dominate everything we do. It’s really embarrassing, and that’s coming from someone who loves politics in sports like myself. Serena will always be seen as the hero by US crowds. Her story resonates with most Americans. Andreescu is from the north though. Oh you silly Americans and your geography If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

I launched into a bit of a general rant. Still anyone facing Serena in the US will never have the crowds support. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

She’s putting in a lot of work to make it happen. Wouldn’t be surprised if she retires if she wins or gets a medal. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.
