Five Point Friday
Here’s your roundup of the five most interesting things I’m enjoying or thinking about this week.
1.) Black Lives Matter
On May 25, George Floyd’s life was taken under tragic circumstances, which has evoked a wave of unprecedented activism and unity against racism and inequality. In tennis, athletes have shared stories, raised awareness, and encouraged action, so I’ve pulled together a handful to help spread their message further.

3.) 10 Weirdest Match Interruptions
