Like most of the other interested parties on the planet, I kept half an eye on the third-round match between Alejandro Gonzalez and world No. 2 Novak Djokovic. But I turned off the television just as Djokovic was on the verge of blowing through the first set with ease. And

MELBOURNE—It was the middle of the 2011 French Open and Rafael Nadal was in a press conference, talking at length about something that I couldn’t quite follow. I knew that winning this title meant a lot to him. It would be his sixth at Roland Garros, tying him with Bjorn

"In my generation, it's all new, a Black woman on the tour; I better be on my best behavior because I don’t want to mess it up for the next generation. So for [Coco] to have that freedom and to take advantage of that platform, it's fabulous." Leslie Allen is
