For the first time in history, it is theoretically possible for the last four female players to be two African Americans (Serena Williams and Sloane Stephens), one bi-racial American (Madison Keys) and one Japanese-Haitian who developed her game in Florida(Naomi Osaka). These are four of the last eight.
The other four- Anastasija Sevastova, Carla Suarez-Navarro, Lesia Tsurenko and Karolina Pliskova.
Fuck the racists.

now I have to start watching female tennis. I've already switched to girls college basketball.

2. I 've been watching for decades

I respect all the players regardless of race as long as they aren't racists themselves.
That said the women don't get their due. Serena has nine more grand slam trophies than any of the US males.

3. Spoiler

Down goes Stephens - she could not handle the heat.
